There were lots of ichneumonids around, perhaps all of one kind, but I had other fish to fry. Bugs featured largely, with the following six noted, two of which need expert help:
There were also nymphs of the psyllid, Trioza remota in pit mines on oak leaves.
Micromoths included Chrysoteuchia culmella (Garden Grass-moth), Glyphipterix thrasonella (Eyed Rush Moth) and Micropterix calthella (Plain Pollen-moth).
The Glyphipterix thrasonella (Eyed Rush Moth) has very few records locally and has the habit of flicking its wings when at rest.
Two macro moths with not many records locally were:
A couple of common hoverflies, a couple of snipe flies, Phytomyza ilicis mines on Holly, plus one other fly that needs better determination than I can give it, complete my list for the day.
