Last year on 14th June, I spotted my first-ever narrow-bordered bee hawk-moth; and today, on exactly the same walk and in exactly the same place, I spotted another! (Or the same. I can't find out whether they hibernate or die after egg-laying.) Unfortunately the camera was in its case and once again, I failed to get a decent shot as the moth zoomed about between the primrose clumps. They can't half shift.
Up on the high ground we'd seen meadow pipits, skylarks, and a red grouse.
