Combe Hill Woods (ST502332) Sunday 13 May

When the sun suddenly came out I took the dog for a walk. two interesting finds - a Vapourer cocoon with newly-emerged larvae and a single buttercup flower covered in Micropterygid moths. I think that they are Micropteryx calthella but would apreciate an ID from an expert! There were none on any of the hundreds of other buttercup flowers.
