Moth trapping on Whixall Moss and in my garden: Large Emerald, Garden Tiger, Scalloped Shell and Elephant Hawk. Our moth numbers and species have increased significantly now we have so much lawn given over to wildflowers.
Below, a White Admiral we saw on a guided walk by West Midlands Butterfly Group. We also saw a Marbled White, an Essex Skipper and a Silver Washed Fritillary.

Out walking, I spotted this vixen watching me. She was not willing to leave so I suspect she was guarding cubs. I left her in peace.
