Hello Woofers!
Daisy back with you again.
Now, first of all, the Mystery Moth from yesterday. We had made exhaustive search looking for the butterfly/moth but in the end, we had to give up.
OTL passed the photo onto our local expert for comment.
The result came back this morning,
It is a day flying moth and comes under the micro-moth listings, in the Pyralidae group.
It is Pyrausta despicata!
Not uncommon in Grain!
Oh well, not the super rare butterfly, just a little lost moth!
We went back to the book of insects but couldn't find any mention of it, so, OTL couldn't identify if it's not listed!
Well, that's his excuse anyway!
This morning I was sniffing my way along the path when OTL called me to 'see who is here', it was Devo!
We had a great time sharing sniffs along the path until he had to go off the path and further on down the sea front. Well, he is such a big lad, he needs the exercise!
Today it has been rather gloomy and wet, that means the butterflies have all stayed at home, so, with no new flowers it left OTL to go hunting slugs and snails!
It was lucky that OTL caught this one!
See you tomorrow.
Luv,
Daisy
