Festoon arrives at Bawdsey

Last night an unexpected ‘first’ for Bawdsey arrived. I am over-the-moon to have recorded the Festoon! Regular on the Hollesley commons; this moth had never wandered down here before.

A Small Marbled was another fine catch (only my second ever record here). Scallop Shell was a ‘third’ for the site and there aren’t many records of the Scarce Silver-lines which also appeared here. Rosy-striped Knot-horn always a delight to see this Oncocera.
