| male Large Skipper, Ochlodes sylvanus |
Following the excitement of the Swallowtail discovery at
Steyning Rifle Range last Thursday, I saw my first a Large Skipper and a
Slow-worm at the site. I then visited Woods Mill and found Leaf beetles, Small Tortoishell
larvae, a Tree Damsel Bug, Red-and-black Froghopper, two more caddis-like Common Sweep larvae and a herd of Black Willow Aphids being tended by ants.
