Wow! That's amazing! Thanks for sharing your story, Craig! It must be awesome to grow up with the six-spot burnet! It is too bad you couldn't find them more recently.

Hey! That's great, thanks Jacob! Funnily enough my first memory of six-spot burnet moth was from the same place I took this, Box Hill in Surrey. There were 100s of them! I was only 7 or 8 years old and it made quite a big impression on me. In recent years I went up there quite a bit looking for orchids, but never saw any more 6 spots.
