These moths were in almost plague?numbers driving between Goulburn and Gundaroo last night. Moths were also in numbers around Gundaroo house also. Difference in colour of moth photos due to light conditions. Moth wings light brown with dark brown markings, heads dark brown with golden brown furry abdomen.
