A rare immigrant from my garden in Aberaeron last night. Very small and if I wasn't now checking all micros too (started this year) then I would have ignored this as "just another micro" ☺️
Not sure about previous Ceredigion records but there are none for Ceredigion on iRecord that I can see and not that many for the whole of the UK.
I had another last night so now have two specimens. Will post the second photo later as it has stronger markings. Will retain until tonight if anyone wishes to see them - last and only records were from 2015 in Aberystwyth.
ReplyDeleteActually, one in Aberystwyth and one in Cors Fochno
ReplyDeletehow does a creature so small survive the journey from North Africa or the like?
ReplyDeleteIt's incredible isn't it? It's only about 7mm long. A marvel.
