Woohoo, finally got pics of Six-belted Clearwing in the Wintersett area today, a great little moth. About 5 to API lure over the course of an hour #MothsMatter
Myself and @PeteSmith1254 recorded 2 Clearwing species at Anglers Country Park today, this Red-tipped Clearwing posed beautifully and was new for site, the Six-belted Clearwing was less obedient however! #MothsMatter
Followed up a remarkable count of 140 Yellowhammer in S Derbyshire and found c.100 buntings, probably 90% Y, 10% RB, along with 50 Linnets and 25 Skylarks. Not bad for a 4ha stubble field. Prior to leaving stubbles, my source said he only saw 6 Y on a good day
