Another local species this one is from back on 4 May at Shornden Meadow, Alexandra Park where we had a Sussex Moth Group, Hastings Branch moth event. In the last few years this area has undergone major clearing and drainage to turn it back into a 'meadow', which is paying off as this moth is a rough meadow species.
