Bedstraw Hawk-moth

Post by SteveH »

Hi folks,

Paul Hopkins raised a the very insightful question "with all the multitudes of Painted Ladies and Diamond-back Moths, when is Cheshire going to get its Bedstraw Hawk-moth invasion?"

Well, the answer was........ last night!!! David Taylor fished one out of his trap at Willaston (Nantwich) - the first since 2004!
