What a beauty...

Whilst there is a dearth of moths, Tom Tams has been asking me about my 10 year old record of Camberwell Beauty in my garden at Stobswood, Northumberland.

Here it is anyway, in case you are interested. How I wish I had a digital camera back then....

This is still probably the very best thing I have seen in the UK, better than the best birds even. Probably due to the fact that, at the time, I couldnt find anyone interested enough to come and have a look. With the new birders around broadening their outlook now, I bet the scene would be different if the date was 2012...
