My first garden Hawks
Couldn't resist posting a group of photos of the Hawks that have visited my garden. They came in a very orderly fashion, a different one each session, over the space of a week or so.
My catch from last Sunday was the best of the year so far with 45 species and 132 individuals. 2 Eyed Hawks, 2 Elephants and a Poplar. Also Peppered, Scorched wing, Swallow Prom., and Lychnis among the flashy ones.
The small brown jobs included Small Fan Foot, Rustic Shoulder Knot, The Flame, Silver y and Straw Dot.
Cheers,
W.

V nice!
Thanks David,
Yes sizes would help! They were both very close to a big (not large!) Nutmeg in size ie. FW about 17 or 18 mm.
I had considered SMB but the distinct claviform stigmata put me off.
I have been getting Large Nutmeg over the last week or so but they have had a more sandy ground colour to them. Looking again, you are probably right.
Thanks,
W.
