12 April 2012 - Struan, Perthshire

A visit with Marc to the Bog Myrtle growing on the roadside near Struan yielded many posts but few moths... Some close inspection revealed a smartly patterned Engrailed - and just below it was my first female Rannoch Brindled Beauty. Further searching of the posts produced a second specimen 'calling' for males.

Other things seen included two Orange Underwing, Red Squirrel and a couple of Short-tailed Voles.
