A very busy night.

Post by swampthing »

A busy night brought 37 species the best of which was golden plusia, probably a garden first. A lime hawk moth is always a dazzler and 4 elephant hawks was a record for one night. Also can anyone lend a hand with this specimen please, from the end of last month which I've failed on.

Thanks

Andy

Thanks Steve. I think you helped me with this at the same time last year! I actually saw a photo of this species in one of my books this morning and it came back to me.
