A couple more micros were added to the 2022 garden list here on 22nd March, comprising Caloptilia populetorum and Epermenia chaerophyllella. The latter is a regular here but the Caloptilia was completely new for the site (my third new garden species already this year!). Despite the name its larvae actually feed on birches of which we have several here.

The only other addition has been this smart Streamer which turned up last night (25th), taking the garden list past 50 species which is about average for this point in the year.
