Busy Bee ,No ! It's a busy Moth.

Up the Top of our garden yesterday, brushing the decking and clearing the leaves from the steps to put in old Compost bags as we do every year we spotted this little fella on a post, what variety is it ? I'm no connoisseur on insects only know a bit about gardening here in South Wales. Thanks

  • Thanks Wild Edges I had a feeling if anyone it would be you who would know. You have an amazing knowledge of our wildlife and insect world which you pass on to others with ease, Thanks ! and he was still there this morning but maybe he will be gone in the morning as it's blooming freezing tonight.
