| Red-headed Cardinal Beetle, pyrochroa serraticornis |
On Saturday we visited Fairmile Bottom for a short walk. I
saw several moths: Cinerous Pearls, Violet Cosmets and a Small Purple and Gold.
Later outside Arundel WWT I witnessed a female Green-veined White rejecting a
male – he was persistent but gave up when she kept her abdomen raised vertically.
An Orange Tip passed by. Blue and red forms of the Crucifer Shield Bug were
abundant. I saw another Comfrey Ermel moth and two Red-headed Cardinal Beetles.
Male and female Blue-tailed Damselflies fluttered around.
