Inspired by @SteelySeabirder and his Seabird World Cup, I have decided to launch a Garden Moth World Cup. I& #39;ve selected 16 wonderful common moth species often found in gardens. Now to find out which is the most popular! #teammoth #mothsmatter @savebutterflies
These 16 species have been split into 4 groups (A to D). I did this randomly, by drawing them out of a pot. I will go through each group as a poll, for people to vote for their favourite species. The top 2 from each group go through to the quarter finals.
Please share this far and wide so we can get a fair result! @RichardFoxBC @savebutterflies @MigrantMothUK @MothIDUK @dgcountryside @diarsia @gmtord @JulieWilliamsBC @JLowenWildlife @martinswarren
