Yaeger Valley is a lovely rural valley in Buffalo County, west-central Wisconsin. It’s about 10 miles west of our farm, and we have good friends, Gary and Ruth Ann, who live there. Gary has become interested in moths, so I’ve started this page to record the moths we find there.
These are the moths we’ve seen so far. (The moth photos are thumbnails, so click on a photo if you want to see a larger version.)
