Grey Dagger Moth and Clouded Yellow butterfly

Just when you feel the air has changed and autumn is approaching it's great to still find colourful insects about. Yesterday in Home Park I found a Clouded Yellow butterfly, the first one I've ever seen in England. I had to do a lot of chasing in order to take a reasonable photo.


Today I spotted the dramatically bright (and hairy) Grey Dagger Moth caterpillar eating Acer leaves.
