Shaded broad-bar moth - Scotopteryx chenopodiata This shot is from today. My trap on the balcony on the 7th floor where we live was without any success. But today we went on a short walk in the nearby mountain and voila! It was quite active in the shrubs and high wet grass, but I managed to make a couple of shots.
