While I was out checking the Dactylorhiza there happened to be a couple of insects to hand.The Smerinthus ocellata was quite happy on my hand but kept quivering its wings.
No Maggi. It's meant to look like that. Vibrating the wings warms up the muscles ready for flight. These big bodied moths need to warm their engines up before they can take off.
Double edged sword - fantastic privilege that the fox feels at home in your garden, but the possible destruction it could wreak if a tasty morsel is in the middle of a prized clump!
Perhaps you should read (or re-read) "The Little Prince"? cheersfermi
