12 years, 5 months and 16 days!

As Neil has already mentioned, now seems to be as good a time as any to add Convolvulus Hawk-moth to your site list. I’ve always dreamed of catching one of these classic migrant moths in the garden and now the wait is finally over. So, it was an odd mixture of elation and relief when I found this chap sitting on the shed by the trap this morning. I just hope that I don’t have to quite so long till the next one!
