22nd August |
More from Steeple Woods.
Mostly solid rain, with a couple of sunny intervals. |
First a few more mines. This is Stigmella aurella, which is very common here. The adult moth is very brightly coloured with a gold metallic band across the wings.
|
And two shots of Stigmella betulicola on a Birch leaf.
|
I've stared and stared at this Chromatomyia aprilina mine on Honeysuckle, but I can't quite work out if it's one mine or many mines radiating from a central spot. Multiples, I think.
|
The Birch also had this tiny (1 cm.) caterpillar on a leaf. No id, yet. |
Three galls on oak, all vacated, as you can see. |
And there's the first ripe Bramble that I've seen this year. |
