We think these were Adscita statices rather than A. geryon (cistus forester) but its hard to be certain.
Budby South Forest (RSPB), Sherwood Forest
I love the eight-spotted forester and was pleased to get really close to this insect. None of the resulting photos was exactly what I wanted, but to me the most amazing part of this photo is that I was exactly as close as it looks like I was. My camera was resting on the flowers perhaps six inches from this moth and it remained unfazed. I do my best not to scare my subjects if possible, but this particular level of ignoring the photographer was quite surprising.

Adscita statices taken at Ainsdale NNR nr. Southport. Forester moths are only found at a small number of locations in the NW of England but since I first found two at Ainsdale NNR in 2013 I've seen them every summer. The cold springs and wet summers of 2019 & 2020 (and Covid-19) meant I only saw 2 each year but in 2018 I recorded and photographed 16 on one day - all within a very small area called on Pinfold Meadow. I love the green iridescence and the fact that they're easily approached as they feed mostly on Ragwort during the day. This individual is showing signs of wear but I like the side-on view and I love the fact that the overcast lighting shows up every detail which would get lost in bright sunshine
