March moth madness!
Now is a brilliant time of year to spot fluttering moths, including the precisely named ‘March Moth’. When I spoke to Ray Mears the other month, he said butterflies and moths are some of the easiest kinds of wildlife to start studying. Despite their reputation, not all moths are grey and boring…like the beautiful delicate Broad-Borded Bee Hawk moth above! As they’re drawn out by the moonlight, the best chance to catch them is by a full moon.
