After long hours scouring bushes and trunks, finally managed to locate this wonderful female Dotted Border.
She was not an easy catch as she was scuttling up an Ash tree trunk and I had to clamber about 10ft up, wedge myself so that my hands were free and then coax her into a pot. Having the head torch was essential. I don't know what anyone walking past would have thought...

ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind comment, Trent.
DeleteThese do take a bit of effort to find, many cold hours in winter when walking the dog, but the rewards are well worth it.
