Found this moth on the wing in bright sunshine on 23rd April. I think it's an Adela reaumurella, correct me if I'm wrong. It did rest for a while on bramble so I could get some photo's but the sunshine was very strong. I've trapped a few times recently but nothing great to report.
It looks spot on to me, Mel and it's a fine photo, too.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks on both counts Steve.
ReplyDeleteI agree re the i/d too Mel - I had two in Stradey Woods, Llanelli yesterday when I went for a walk, rather than looking for moths (trapping has not been worthwhile over the last `n` nights). Have a look at George`s blog on the Glamorgan moth site...he`s had a good moth (can`t remember its name) on greater stitchwort...worth looking out for it.
ReplyDeleteWill do Ian, thats all I've been doing recently is looking at wild flowers, seen Early purple orchids.
