We're up to SEVEN now!

Since Ben found our first hornet moth t'other day - and more pertinently, our first hornet moth pupal exuvia a day later - we've been checking the base of the biggest poplar in the garden... and now found SEVEN exuviae!

They're everywhere!

Our hornet moths seem to prefer the exposed roots of our largest black poplar - and clearly are liking this sunny, hot weather.

We've even found two exuviae sticking out of the ground (see photos below) with adult moth long gone though, unfortunately.

Wonderful stuff.
