Hebden Bridge 22nd July 2017 Light Rain Heavy circa 12;30
Here is a few shots of the 45.030 BF1513 White Plume Moth Pterophorus pentadactyla
The last record I have was a visit in Glaphorne Cow Pastures in 2015 on a Black Hairstreak and Wood white Visit with Andy / Linford
The Specimen was found Nectaring on Ragwort adjacent to Bindweed Convolvulus its larval host so might be a good time for finding specimens for rearing
