From the open growth.

With burnet moths on the go now for a week or two at Copley and my local cemetery I thought I'd pay a visit to Tag meadow on Monday to see the spectacular numbers on show there. Normally they number in to their hundreds across the entire meadow so I was more than a little surprised to see..........none at all! 

Has anyone else seen them here this year?

Most photos I took were of flighty moths and butterflies so only these two escaped the re-cycle bin. Also seen were lots of Shaded Broad-bars and a single Latticed Heath.
