The target species was Emperor moth as we've been trying to see, even just one, for years.
It was a great walk through the site but with amazingly no Emperor moths, even though just over a week previously there had been sightings on the reserve of up to 15 individual moths!
As said though a great walk nonetheless with other sightings of c5 Green hairstreak, lots of Round-leaved Sundews, Wild cranberries galore, Thousands of Cottongrass plants and breeding Meadow pipits.
