Tree-lichen beauties and some confirmations
I've been hoping to get a Tree-Lichen Beauty - my Townsend says it arrived in Oxfordshire in 2015. Last night I got two individuals.

Hi Mark,
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you will be seeing a lot more of Tree-lichen Beauty! "Only" five here last night (27th) but it was a chilly night after a wet day - I've been getting double-digit counts in the garden on warmer nights and the further south you go the higher the counts. I think you are correct with Sallow Kitten (not quite a typical example) and you are definitely correct with Buff Footman.
It's not on my garden list yet and I'm a lot further south than you Dave.
