Yes folks, there is such a thing as an interesting moth! Radipole isn’t just a superb place for birds it’s also a really great place for a vast variety of other species. A few hours moth trapping last night certainly proved that when a Small Eggar flew into the trap. It’s a very local species and is of conservation concern. Years ago it was a fairly regular species but has rapidly decline due to the removal of hedge networks and scrub clearance. Radipole Lake has some really nice scrubby areas which could potentially be a breeding spot for the Small Eggar, so a bit more investigation work is required!
