Elephant in the grass


30:th of May
16 persons from Naturetrek arrived yesterday and had a great start with the first 3 good species of Owl. As we do the Woodpeckers in Färna Ekopark this morning, we are lucky to encounter another of the charismatic Hawk Moths – the Elephant Hawk Moth. So close to have been run over by the van and trampled on by us, it just sat there in the grass by the roadside.
