Urban hummer at Llanelli

I had excellent close-up views, but took absolutely lousy photos of, a hummingbird hawk-moth visiting an urban wildlife garden in a very built-up area close to Llanelli railway station this afternoon (21/7).

                                          Above: it`s that `blur` in the middle of the photo!

I also trapped at home last night, with an acceptable variety of summer moths, though there was nothing particularly exciting. Dioryctia simpliciella was a wanderer from adjacent woodland.

Be aware of potentially very profitable mothing weather this week, with hot southerlies starting in the early week period. Get your moth traps ready!
