Pheromone success!
Set up a pheromone lure for Yellow-legged Clearwing on an Oak tree near Ali's Pond LNR in Sonning yesterday and had to wait a full 3 minutes for one to turn up. Amazing - and what a fantastic wasp mimic! A new parish record. Also caught a couple of stunners in the Robinson trap overnight - Barred Yellow and Scorched Wing. Probably only see one of each of these every 5 years or so.
