Jersey in Crystal Palace?


I was somewhat surprised today to see a Jersey tiger  (Euplagia quadripunctaria) moth on a Butterfly bush in Crystal Palace park. Apparently, there has been a breeding population in South London since 2004. My picture will follow when I return from holiday.

Noted a Curlew ( Numenius arquata ) on the Loughor estuary at Bynea.
