A descent into a little visited bay on The Oa led to finding some impressive yellow meadow ant mounds and an abundance of dew moth caterpillars.

These wee Islay short-necked oil beetles must have just emerged in the last few days as some were only 7 or 8mm. A lot of growing to do to reach their beautifully bloated full size.
