If you enjoyed the stunning views of Edinburgh from Arthur’s Seat on Netflix UK & Ireland's One Day, you might like to know that it’s a great place to see a rare butterfly called the Grayling 🦋⛰️

57 Old Lady gathered on the ceiling. Two optimistically wafting pheromones about, despite the early hour.
Also newly arrived were 2 Peacock and 2 Herald. My first #HibernatingHeralds of the season! 🥳
One of three moth traps I'm running tonight at Tentsmuir NNR as part of tomorrow's open day event for the reserve. I've a feeling it's going to be a busy morning! Former NatureScot account BC Scotland
