On Monday we visited Arundel Wetland Trust for lunch and I managed to get a Reed Warbler shot outside the centre. We also saw a dozen carp swimming in the shallow pool plus tadpoles. In the afternoon I visited Rewell Wood to try to get Speckled Yellow moth shots and I repeated the trip this afternoon. They are difficult to photograph as they invariably spot you 5 metres away and fly up into the canopy. I managed to shoot some  micro moths which are proving impossible for me to identify. I think they are in the Olethreutinae subfamily of Tortricidae.
postscript - one micro moth has been identified as Notocelia trimaculana.

This moth suddenly dropped to the floor and stayed still. It is very well camouflaged.
