The tiniest long-horn

Trips out locally in Bucks over the past three days have produced quite a long list of common day-flying moths but perhaps the best was this rather poorly-marked example of Cauchas fibulella found today sitting on germander speedwell at the Calvert Jubilee nature reserve.

Cauchas fibulella, Calvert 16th May

Another nice find at Calvert today was a couple of examples of the smart little micro Pancalia leuwenhoekella sitting on daisy flowers (Martin Harvey posted some photos here from Pulpit Hill in the Chilterns two weeks ago).
