Pale Prominent, I believe from the moth report the only currently known breeding populations are in Elland and Brighouse so is this a good record?

Wow what a week for Prominents........fantastic
Am I right in think that PaleyPale Prominentsare scarce in Calderdale as not that much is written abou them in the moth report? Thanks,, I was pleased to get another Glaucous Shears.
The only Pale Prominent records are in the moth report...I think they had a few in 2019 at Cromwell , but not got any info on those records so this one is about the 6th/7th Calderdale record ..you never know you may get a few this year as there are deffo on the increase locally..
Also this is a very early record for Calderdale (May)the others are in late June /August so you may get them until late August with a bit of luck . Pale Prominents are pretty common in the rest of VC 63 , so they may just be under recorded in Calderdale...send one to Northowram please...LOL
It is still sat on the house wall and it has been told now :-):-).
Cheers
