#MothOfTheDay was the first sighting in 2026 for the furry cloak of
NUT-TREE TUSSOCK
Colocasia coryli
Larvae feed on multiple trees, including Beech, Oak, and probably in this case, next door's Field Maple. A common and well-distributed moth.

@hastingsmothman@mastodon.green There is a type of yam with the same genus name. Looks very similar!
