The moth was at Southey Wood (16.8.04) in a patch of flowers which attracted Holly Blue and Peacock butterflies as well as a good population of what I believe are Dark Bush Crickets.
Female Dark Bush Cricket.
Male Dark Bush Cricket.
Check out the foot on the above. It appears to have a little 'stabiliser' to help spring in the air?.
Further up the track, I managed to get some photos of a few butterflies, including...
...Painted Ladyand...
...Brimstone
We also found a patch with literally hundreds of migrant hawkers as you can see from this photograph
As the sun went behind a cloud, the numbers of settled Common Darter increased allowing a few snaps.
