25 April 2011 - Long Wittenham Wood, oxon

A quick check of the tadpole pool this morning revealed a ladybird sat on the brick, surrounded by water (and tadpoles). However, on closer inspection I was very surprised to see that it was in fact a Cream-streaked Ladybird - new for me.

Then checked the moth trap in Long Wittenham Wood. Delighted to find another tick for today in the shape of a Chocolate-tip - one of my all time 'most-wanted' moths...

Only other item of interest today was this Red Twin-spot Carpet
