High Heath.
Overcast with heavy rain showers. |
A Willow bush provided me with a couple of shots. First, Ants tending a few Aphids at branch intersections.
|
And then I noticed a few rolled-up leaves. The white-headed larva is just discernible in the right-hand image. It's about 1-2 mm long. Probably a Sawfly.
The Willow appears to be a hybrid between Eared and Goat. (Crinkled leaves, but too large and oval to be pure Eared) |
And a little grey Weevil on the same plant. |
This micro flew around tantalisingly and then allowed me this single shot on the Bramble leaf. Probably Eupoecilia angustana again. |
Most of the Dog Violets have finished now, but this solitary specimen struggles on. |
And the Heaths start. Cross-leaved Heath - Erica tetralis. |
