Hi Graham
Thanks for the ID's but I must you have surprised me with the 2nd one. Is it a juvenile?

John | Yep, a teneral male John. They go through this straw coloured stage.
The give away is the broad antihumeral stripe, and the two straw coloured ends to the last two segments, which will eventually be light blue. |

Nice to see the Long-horned moths John and Davy, there have been lots of them about round here the last couple of weeks , lots and lots of males but only the odd female , the males are flying about in groups , they look odd flying about with those long antenna (sp) |

Just a quick thankyou to all of you for coming and making the weekend such a success. Also a huge thankyou to Mark, Steve and Oscar for the work they put in not only on the day but throughout the year. Well done to John for managing the communal trapping site and keeping going so late into the night, I wimped out early and went home to bed.
It is always most satisfying to know that everyone enjoys coming to our little reserve and I hope we will be able to do something similar next year.
Some great pictures from everyone.
Hopefully I will see you all again at Thursley if I can sort out the time away.

Having enjoyed the posts from all the lucky WABs who attended the Priory the Priory Meet, will there be another next year and could I book a place please. It's a bit of a journey for me but I reckon it would be really worth it, not only for the photography but to meet some of the members who have made my time on here a happy and enjoyable experience.

Hi Ron
It's a virtual certainty that this will take place next year. Just keep an eye up for the thread some time next year announcing it.
Once you see that just respond to it then wait to see what the deatails will be.
