Having waded through all the orthosias in last night's catch, I had a bit of a shock when I found this on the floor of the trap.
I was pretty sure what it was, but did for a moment wonder whether it was not a bit of wood! Presumably that's what one is meant to think as it subsequently behaved more like a stick than a moth, and was completely unmoved as I manhandled it for photos.
Needless to say a first for the garden, and perhaps the first for NW Bucks?
Well Done Phil! A very nice record.
