Hi Steve,

Some impressive moths, especially the Ruddy Highflyer, I've been trying for one at Whixall for 2 or three weeks now, so far without success.

Hi Greg,

This was the first Ruddy Highflyer (Hydriomena ruberata) I've caught in Cheshire. It has been caught nearby in the past but across the River Dane in Staffordshire.
