Roger - I am disappointed - I thought it was going to be a Lonchaeid from Shetland! Anyways your Aberdeenshire specimen is Silba fumosa .... Iain

Sorry to disappoint you Iain :( I'd like to find some up here and if I did you'd be the first to know. And with this ongoing Covid crap it looks like I won't be finding any on Mainland Scotland either this year.

Snow covering here ATM so a while till anything will be flying.. Back to Birds, Otters and Orca till then ...
BTW thanks for the ID, most unexpected getting it to species :)

Regards

Roger.... the Frozen North :|
