Came for a visit a couple of years or so ago, apparently it was a good year for them.
This was the first and only one I've ever seen, and hopefully not the last!
I don't know why the link has come up and not the video.

I've had the odd sighting over the years including last year. They are difficult to photograph so I can't back up my claim with pictures.

We haven't got a youtube Shorts BBcode yet.
I've only ever seen one once. Just happened to spot it in a wood that I'd been in lots of times before. Not seen it again since.

I think that is as good a photo of a HHM on the wing as you are likely to get.
