Evening walk

A mission to capture some snails for a colleague's lesson tomorrow resulted in some nice beetles including Bembidion tetracolum, Silpha atrata, an Elaterid that will require a bit of work but may be Hypnoides riparius and NFM the weevilLeiosoma deflexum. As well as a couple of Pterostichus melanarius and a Pterostichus niger.

Leiosoma deflexum

Hypnoides riparius

Also first hoverfly of the year, sheltering in the Wee Wood, Eristalis pertinax.
