While trying to record wolves (once again) this rather big moth, perhaps pine hawk moth, approached both of my Clippy microphones. A nice warm sound. This has happened so many times by now so I wonder if they are attracted to my grey Bubblebee wind protection...! In the background you hear  the wartbiter chorus all the time.
