* incredible how these guys think they can find a better hibernation
site so late in the fall/winter!
Here's ones on the streets in the village here:
Noctua pronuba 1 Dec 2015
Noctua pronuba 2 Dec 2015
cf Noctua pronuba 4 Dec 2015
cf Noctua pronuba 6 Dec 2015
cf Noctua pronuba 8 Dec 2015
cf Noctua pronuba 9 Dec 2015
cf Noctua pronuba 14 Dec 2015
Noctua pronuba 17 Dec 2015
cf Noctua pronuba 21 Dec 2015
(cf's are mostly roadkills) - Bev led me to the name of these this year,
and even though the previous identifications are retrospective they seem
to be increasing in accordance with their invasive nature.
