Saw the first evidence of 'cuckoo spit' on Ox-eye daisy in Bynea, with the nymph of the Froghopper (probably Philaenus spumarius) hiding away in it. A male Pine processionary moth (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) appeared at my door in Loughor. The larva of this moth is a serious pest of pine woods and lives communally in large silken tents, emerging (often at night) in a single file to feed.
