Waved Black

Sunny, 23°, light SSW.

Some information from Tony Rayner.

“One moth species that has extended its range is the distinctive Waved Black, this year I have caught one on several occasions.

Another species that I had thought we had lost with the passing of East End Farm and its horses is the Hornet Robberfly. (Britain's largest fly).

Until recent years we were thought to have one of the strongest colonies in the country outside of Somerset. Today I found two in our meadow.”

I also found a Hornet Robberfly near Little Lollingdon on Monday.
