@TheJollyBirder @BDMLR @mcsuk Yes, shocking

I was greeted by this grim sight when I arrived at Loch Paible today. This lost/discarded fishing net had five dead baby seals entangled in it. It’s so sad that this has had such tragic consequences.

This fabulous male Emporer Moth was in my trap this morning. It’s got to be one of the best looking UK moths.

[Martin Gillingham @martgilli]

This Puss Moth was so well camouflaged on the path that I nearly trod on it. Also a fantastic Emporer Moth, which has to be one of the best moths in the UK.
