Herfølge BK 2 DMI 0 att 97 in a stadium with a record crowd of 8k that hosted a Champions League qualifier v Rangers 25 years ago. The club later merged to play in Køge but continue to play under the original name in Denmark’s Step 6 #groundhopping

Red Underwing - a very classy moth #teammoth #mothsmatter

Publife in all its glory at Buffer Stops, Rawtenstall, Lancs

A handsome Autumnal Rustic #mothsmatter #teammoth

An unobtrusive garden visitor #treecreeper

1968. Not a bad line up at Paisley Ice Rink

A Desi Pub in the Malvern Hills. The Marlbank with an excellent North Indian menu. Owners started with a curry night once a week, now so popular it’s a permanent menu with two well kept cask ales. One for volume 2 @davidjesudason.bsky.social

Herefordshire v Worcestershire at Eastnor’s beautiful ground

Three Kings at Hanley Castle, Worcestershire remains an absolute must visit classic. C15th pub that’s not been remotely gentrified, welcoming, in the same family for over a century, open every day, no food and 3 well kept beers.

The subtle camouflage of the Dotted Clay, a frequent garden visitor #mothsmatter #teammoth

St Mirren (3) 8 Annan Athletic (1) 2 att 2,164 (94 away). Strange game with three Saints goals in the first nine minutes then four more in the last nine.

A common but quite variable moth, the July Highflyer #teammoth #mothsmatter

Swannay Brewery Tap, Orkney. Very classy

Jersey 2 Gozo 0 at Rockworks Park, Holm att 177. A beautiful venue with another immaculate pitch. #groundhopping #islandgames2025

The hosts open their Island Games with a win in front of an amazing 1,886 crowd. Orkney (2) 3 Frøya (0) 0 #groundhopping #islandgames2025

Scallop Shell #teammoth #mothsmatter

This rare local derby, 57 years after last meeting in the league, attracted a sell out 2,640 crowd. @cambridgecityfc.bsky.social (1) 1 Cambridge United (1) 3. A great occasion well managed by the hosts at their smart new stadium #groundhopping

Unusual view of a Map-winged Swift, or what’s left of one after its body had been eaten #teammoth #mothsmatter

Still June but off we head into another season, starting with a friendly. Dumbarton (0) 0 St Mirren (1) 4 att 1,357 (1,000 away fans as pictured by Dumbarton FC). Smart bar for away fans inside stadium and a very good 28 page programme from a club under brand new owners.

Deventer, Netherlands pubmeister.wordpress.com/2025/06/26/g...

The moth with a hedgehog vibe. The Drinker, originally named by Goedaert, a C17th Dutchman who called it ‘drunkard’ after watching it put its head into water #teammoth #mothsmatter

This Fox Moth laid her eggs in the trap #mothsmatter #teammoth

Flame Shoulder, easy to overlook the beauty of some of our common moths #mothsmatter #teammoth

The glaring gap in the market for Asparagus Wheat Beer has finally been filled. Well balanced and refreshing.

Cream-bordered Green Pea #mothsmatter #teammoth

Goat Moth, a beast of a moth new for me, so called because the caterpillars supposedly smell ‘goaty’. The larvae- which the Romans apparently ate - can spend up to 5 years growing before pupating. Adult looks like a chunk of split wood. #teammoth #mothsmatter

DK Step 6: Vordingborg IF (1) 1 Herlufsholm GF (3) 3. Att 130. Fine old ground that once hosted a young Morten Olsen. Hospitable club with hot food and a neat 8 page programme. #groundhopping

Yellow Shell, an intricately marked moth active by day #mothsmatter #teammoth

Crown and Anchor, Kilnsea. Birdwatchers scan the mud flats to Spurn Point as the land gradually disappears.

Can’t help but feel Skeffling Utd were way ahead of their time in 1961. Travelling squad includes 10 Subs, 7 Trainers, 13 Directors, 4 Linesmen and, for safety’s sake, an Undertaker.

Northumberland’s charms pubmeister.wordpress.com/2025/05/28/a...

Clydebank (0) 2 Musselburgh Ath (0) 0 att 1150. Sell out crowd celebrate Bankies winning promotion to the Lowland League.

Fine day. First ever Lime Hawk-moth followed by a first Pectoral Sandpiper at RSPB Lochwinnoch. Maybe I should do the Lottery while my luck’s in.

@shannoch.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/football/202... Quite a life. Read this and thought of you!

@mothiduk.bsky.social another one if you don’t mind helping again please. I struggle with Pugs. Lost it before I could get a better pic.

May is a stellar Mothing month this year. Lime hawk-moth: Until this year only a couple of Scottish records, also both in Renfrewshire, but several local sightings recently #teammoth #mothsmatter

@mothiduk.bsky.social hi can you help me ID this Swift please? App says Orange but seems early, Common more likely?

Miller Time. The caterpillar is extraordinary, sits on open foliage resembling a feather or spider’s web (Leverton & Cubitt) #mothsmatter #teammoth

St Mirren (1) 2 Hibs (2) 2 att 7,671. Sell out crowd, great atmosphere from both sets of supporters. Hibs 2 up inside 10 mins, Boyle unplayable. Buds battered them to draw level and had ‘winner’ controversially overturned. Our team has been heroic against much better resourced clubs all season.

Unusual view of Pale Prominent #mothsmatter #teammoth

Boom! Didn’t expect this verified Pauper Pug in Renfrewshire. 3rd Scottish record apparently. Named because of supposedly impoverished markings but think that’s a bit of an injustice to the lad #mothsmatter #teammoth

@mothiduk.bsky.social hi can you help me with this pug caught I Renfrewshire please? Tried several images on Obsidentify and it comes up 100% Pauper Pug. This seems very unlikely but not impossible (there are limes nearby). What do you think?

This somewhat worn male Muslin Moth is a first for Renfrewshire. Common in England and Lothian. Makes up for very low numbers so far this year. #mothsmatter #teammoth

A Northumberland highlight: trip to Coquet Island to see the UK’s only(?) breeding site of Roseate Terns.

This Lunar Marbled Brown lay eggs in the pot, which were swiftly transferred to the nearest oak #mothsmatter #teammoth

St Mirren (1) 2 Rangers (1) 2 att 7,019. Buds had to settle for a draw after missing some great chances in an entertaining game.

Pine Beauty, only the second garden record and the first since 2017 #teammoth

Silent Whistle, Ashburton, Devon. Initially named the Old Bottle, it became the Railway Hotel 1872-1962, until the branch line to Totnes was closed #pubsigns
