A rather handsome moth called The Black-letter Dart was flying last night. The larva of this species, the Spotted Cutworm is a serious crop pest.
A Rhinoceros Beetle - normally a forest species - clung on a grass stalk in my field this morning.
And Blue Toadflax, a plant of dry acidic habitats, started to flower on road shoulders and in gravel parking lots.
