Report Details
Peter's Hawk-moth caterpillar, and then red hot pupa, is Convolvulus Hawk-moth. While I'm here, I'm happy to report that the Wall continues to reclaim lost ground in the Weald. Following the sighting of low numbers at Knepp in recent years, my brother and I saw four third brood females in the Southern Block over the weekend, while leading safaris.
