Thanks both, yes, I was thrilled to find this stunner, as were the wildlife group kids - a first for me!
Cheers

Hi Ken
Great Find
Looking through the BMS database I think it is the first record from Yorkshire since 1948. There is a single record from Scotland I recorded it in Derbyshire in 2011 and it also found in Leicestershire last year, and there are some records from Warwickshire and Wales but I think that all the other records are from way down south.
