The first camera record from the Soosaare badger sett. The capercaillie cock seems to feel at home here. In the first part of the video it has a late pre-lunch snooze and in the second half we can see how gravel is picked up for the crop.

The chevron
Chevron Lillakas öövaksik Eulithis testata
The chevron occurs in the whole of Estonia and is quite common. We can meet it in conifer or mixed conifer forests, thickets, gardens and elsewhere too from mid-July to the beginning of September. In the rainy weather of last weekend the moths did not of course fly much.
