A disappointing catch in my garden moth trap yesterday morning probably due to New Moon. Only 3 species but new to the garden was a Narrow -winged Grey and as well as a Green-brindled Crescent. #mothsmatter

Entries to our annual Photographic Competition were on display at our members afternoon on Saturday. Those present voted this image of a Lang's Short-tailed Blue taken by Harry Faull as winner of the International Section. #savebutterflies

The Moth section of our annual Photographic was keenly contested. At one stage I thought I may be called on to give my casting vote but this image of a Puss Moth by David Beecroft just edged in front when all the votes were counted. #mothsmatter

The British section the 2025 #bcnorfolk photographic competition was won by Régine Godfrey for an image of a Swallowtail taken at Sutton Fen.
