The highlight without doubt was finding larval cases of the Mugwort feeder Coleophora artemisicolla only 400 m from my home. I have been looking over many years for this species although tricky to spot with an eye-glass you can see the diagnostic holes in the Mugwort florets. This is a Lincolnshire first and I am sure if you spend time looking you may come across it..
It is now leaf-mining season but here in Lincolnshire the miners seem to be almost absent, on Birch I have only come across one of the Phyllonorcyter species.
Not sure of the status of Lesser Stag Beetle but one was in my moth trap the other week, a first for me.
