    Great species.

    Small tip: it would help if you improve your photo titles, it makes your photo better findable. You can do so by clicking the "Edit details" button above. I think you are sometimes now using the comment system instead of the actual description field. Hope this helps :)     Posted 9 years ago

    This was identified by Wildflower , before I cropped and re-submitted it. Being a bit daft I thought the identification would show automat automatically and I deleted the original. One day I will know exactly what to do! Posted 9 years ago

      You had identified it wrong so I fixed it. It is best to enter the scientific name in the identification field to avoid any confusion. Posted 9 years ago

    This very large Moth hitched a lift one evening on our riverboat as we were cruising to moor- up on the River Nappo.. Posted 9 years ago
