Jo, I tell a lie, the Nicotiana sylvestris is still going strong about 100 metres west of the Coop in Acle, look for the For Sale sign @jo-the-botanist.bsky.social

Any moth-ers , any thoughts on this one from east Norfolk last night, rather worn and not very obliging. Thanks @mothiduk.bsky.social

Any thoughts on this one, east Norfolk last night? Thanks @mothiduk.bsky.social

Several White Admirals showing well at Swanton Abbott Low Common this morning.

A lovely Striped Hawk-moth in my moth trap in east Norfolk this morning.

@mothiduk.bsky.social Grateful for your thoughts on these three: Phyllonorycter klemannella? Phyllonorycter platani? and not sure on the third. All in Norwich today. Thanks.

A lovely Eyed Hawk Moth in my garden in Horsey this morning.

Pleased to see the scarce dune loving spider Marpissa nivoyi at Horsey dunes yesterday. Long known from the North Norfolk coast but just a single record from the East Norfolk dunes until now.

A nice fresh Yellow Horned in my moth trap this morning. Widespread in woodland but scarce in coastal east Norfolk, only my second record in 11 years at Horsey.

Lovely spring morning in east Norfolk, Bitterns booming, Blackcaps and Chiffchaffs singing and this Comma soaking up the sunshine.

Could this violet be Viola alba? On a roadside verge in Horsey this morning.

Syntormon metathesis is a small dolichopid fly which was only recognised as British a few years ago, but appears to be sparsely present in fenland habitat in the east of England. It also appears, unusually, to be winter active judging by this female near Great Yarmouth in Norfolk today.

For those dipterists pining for the buzzing of summer wings, here's quite a scarce muscid fly, a coastal sand dune specialist, this one from Winterton Dunes in Norfolk in August - Coenosia minutalis. @ukmuscidae.bsky.social

Aphids aren't everyone's idea of excitement, but this one has cool eyes on stalks. This is Caricosipha paniculatae, found on sedge at Sweetbriar Marshes in Norwich today and no doubt very under-recorded. Thanks to James Emerson for the ID.

A rare awayday with Graeme Lyons at Dungeness today. Pleased to get great views of Large Conehead and Great Green Bush Cricket.

A lovely plump female Wasp Spider at Sweetbriar Marshes this morning.

Some gorgeous (and cooperative) Migrant Hawkers in the garden this afternoon.

I came across hundreds of Cut-leaved Teasel yesterday at Farrow's Wood near Acle, a very statuesque plant that I'd never seen before.
