As part of our The Wildlife Trust for Beds, Cambs & Northants water #beetles #WildlifeTrainingWorkshop, we had the moth traps out last night @GreatFen. A bit too breezy, but we got 108 #moths of 13 species, including this lovely #Streamer. As the wind drops, look out for water beetles in your #moth traps.


A second #GreatSilverWaterBeetle recorded this year, as part of our The Wildlife Trust for Beds, Cambs & Northants @GreatFen water #beetle #monitoring. A male, using a specially created shallow pool for invertebrates and other wildlife. Looking forward to see how widespread they are; it's looking promising.



Like Henry, we've been getting #PaleTussock in the garden. One of my favourite #moths and what a fuzzy face! You'll have a chance to have your own close encounters of the moth-kind, at the Great Fen The Wildlife Trust for Beds, Cambs & Northants #Ecotour on 14th June; places are still available.







A great year for the #ScarletTigers. Plenty of these stunning #moths recorded in our garden last night. A lovely highlight for The Wildlife Trusts #30DaysWild from The Wildlife Trusts. Look out for them, day and night.
