| | | Garden Tiger
Only started trapping moths last year, so I was particularly pleased to find this our first Garden Tiger in the trap this morning, sheltering from the torrential overnight rain, and adding some welcome colour to our miserable unseasonal weather.....

It's a lovely looking Moth. Reminds me of a Vulcan Bomber

What a beauty - one I have yet to see, although I usually get at least one Jersey Tiger in my garden each year. |

fabulous moth, ive been trapping for nearly 3 years, i got one within a few goes of starting trapping, its only recently that i have read how they have declined like so many species...sadly i havent seen one since...i was in france last summer, early august, and i saw hundreds of jersey tigers sitting around during the day on various plants along most hedgerows...

Wow, what a wonderful moth - sorry I can't help to identify. Seeing your photo has brightened up my day.
