Like everyone else I have theories and opinions on lots of things I know b*gger all about.
I have ID's for all the above and most of the others that we caught. Poplar Hawk , Purple Thorn , Gold Star , Yellow tail , Brimstone , and Sexton beetle.
Need help with this one though if anyone has any ideas.
What you have there is a stunning little buff arches.
