| White-barred Gold, Micropterix aruncella (7mm) |
Today we took Dorothy, our New Zealand visitor, to
Pulborough Brooks. We walked to Wigginholt Church which was very fruitful for insects. I found 5 moth species: Bright Bell, Dark Strawberry
Tortrix, 2 Vapourer moth larvae and 2 longhorn moths, Yellow-barred Longhorn
and the tiny White-barred Gold. We had a great lunch then watched
the Rock Doves and a Nuthatch by the feeders.
This evening, together with Terry, we went to the last talk of the season at Arundel WWT: "In Archer's Footsteps- Birding in the Republic of Somaliland" by Nigel Redman. A thoroughly enjoyable evening and we saw lots of Larks!
