| Dingy Skipper, Erynnis tages |
Yesterday I joined Mark Colvin early at Heyshott Down. Mark
found 2 Dingy Skippers but they were the only butterflies seen. Other interesting
finds were a Juniper Shieldbug and an Emperor moth pupa lying on the ground.
The latter is strange as it should have been in a cocoon.
