Looks like a sample bottle to the left of Zigs hand

 

I'd been cutting back the undergrowth looking for the feet for my tower scaffold, looks like an old lobbed rum bottle

 

I see it's empty

 

Yep, only lob em when they're empty

 

I've talked to a few animals in my time Woo

 

Hi @Zigs

I think a scarlet tiger ? did it have red on its body ?

 

I think it's a Cream-spot Tiger

 

A Tiger?

 

well done you so it is at least I got the Tiger part


Wingspan 45-60 mm.

Inhabiting woodland and a range of open grassy areas, this species has a distribution covering much of the southern half of England and Wales.

It flies in May and June, and regularly comes to light.

The larvae, like those of other Tiger moths, are brown and covered with hairs, and feed on a range of herbaceous plant

 

Thank you Spruce, does this mean i'm getting better at iding things
