@swaledalebirds_ Tried to find it,but my Twitter seems as if it won’t scroll back further than March 25 for some reason!I see things have changed now so you can’t look at what you’ve liked anymore either!What’s the bloody point of that?!Was bad enough that you can’t see who’s liked your tweets!🙄

Martin,do you happen to know if me Lunar Thorn was the first for my 10k square?! @swaledalebirds_ Cheers.

[Twitcher’s Pud 🍨 @twitcherspud]

A few from two days ago’s trap. I’m told Lunar Thorn by Clare - lifer,Chinese Character,Poplar Hawk-moth & Bee Moth. 🙂

@swaledalebirds_ Whaaatt?!?! Blimey! I have no recollection & was claiming a lifer!! 🙈😂
Thank you. 🙂

Call me a farmer with my farmer’s hat on rather than a birdwatcher,but every year it seems a lot of the opened up for filming & disturbed nests on Springwatch get predated.This time Pine Martens seem to be the main culprits so please rewilders,don’t be releasing any round ‘ere!🥴

@swaledalebirds_ It’s ongoing & slow;they are still at large.I know most people in the dale won’t be as gullible as me,but just watch out for travelling clothes salesman with sob stories & money making schemes targeting isolated farms & people.I can’t name them yet & I’m not the only one in dale.

@ruth_newby Many thanks,Ruth. 🙂

Always was rubbish at pugs! Prob just Common or a different common one,but any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you. 🙂

@ivysuckle Well,I thought it was an Early & nearly didn’t take any photos! 🙈 Clare ID’d it for me - & the Shears!

@Sarahcoxon8 @RichardBowler1 I believe these pictures are from a tweet I saw recently where a farmer was prosecuted & banned from keeping animals so not the norm.

@AnnandTerrySmi1 Thank you. 🙂

[Twitcher’s Pud 🍨 @twitcherspud]

A couple from two nights ago’s trap. Could anyone tell me what the first one is,please? Think the other is an Early Thorn. 🙂

[Twitcher’s Pud 🍨 @twitcherspud]

@clare_taz Thank you,Clare. I’m so rusty for one thing! I thought it might be Shears which I have had before,but then lost confidence & I don’t think I’ve had or heard of Lunar Thorn so that will be a lifer! Many thanks. 🙂

[Twitcher’s Pud 🍨 @twitcherspud]

Did a trap last night & there was a few including this beautiful Poplar Hawk-moth. 🙂

@Rebecca08510632 @swaledalebirds_ Thank you,Rebecca. 🙂

Bonny little bug on a silage bale. Don’t think I’ve seen one of these before if anyone could tell me what it is,please?
Cheers. 🙂
