Another colourful little moth, again on nettles - this will suffer with the disaster of ash dieback which appears to kill up to 95% of ash trees

I did not know before about the disease affecting ash trees in the UK. Sounds terrible, and I would imagine this to be one of many species that will suffer. Posted 5 years ago
