I'll start by bringing to your attention, please, a new tab entitled 'Coronavirus' on the header of this blog. Please use this to look for non-wildlife related resources which may help you, or enable you to help others, during the difficullt times ahead.

Now to some news:-

Oak Beauty moth

Brian Hammond found this beautiful moth - an Oak Beauty (Biston strataria) on the wall of his house last week. It was a new record for Brian, who is somewhat of a moth enthusiast! You can read more about this species on the excellent Naturespot website here:- https://www.naturespot.org.uk/species/oak-beauty. 

Oak Beauty (Biston strataria) (male) - Blackfordby
 Thank you, Brian. I'd be delighted to see one of these myself!
