Interesting to read everyone's favourites from last year.
My favourites were:
1. a moth - a
Feathered Brindle, which visited my light trap and was the first recording of this Nb nationally scarce species where I live, according to the County Moth Recorder;
2. a butterfly - the
Silver-spotted Skipper - which I saw for the first time in 2007;
3. another butterfly - the
Grayling, which I also saw for the first time in 2007; and
4. a
Hornet Robberfly (Asilus crabroniformis) - a huge fly that was too fast to photograph. This is also a nationally scarce species.
