On Saturday afternoon, I walked into my greenhouse in my garden to find a Yellow-legged clearwing female buzzing around the roof. Not the first time I’ve seen this moth on the site and also not the first time I’ve found one in a greenhouse. As it was warm thought I’d put the pheromone lure out and yes, within 2 minutes a male Yellow-legged clearwing came in.
But this wasn’t the end of my clearwing sightings. On Sunday afternoon did the same thing and found another clearwing in the greenhouse, this time a Currant! Not too surprising I suppose as it does breed in my currant bushes in the garden.

Very nice Neil. I must get my lures out and find a few clearwings. I have yet to see any here except for the Currant. Lovely photos.
