Acleris logiana

A really hot day around the reserve led to plenty of spring/summer species being reported. Best of all was a single specimen of Acleris logiana which is a rare micro moth. (See photo above) I managed to find it whilst carrying out the final stages of the woodland ride project.

Also noted: Green-veined White, Orange-tip, Peacock, Comma, Red Admiral, Brimstone/ Orange Underwing and Twin-spotted Quaker.
