A 'flock' of Nut-tree Tussocks....

Nut-tree Tussock

Having caught loads of these down south, I was surprised to be congratulated for having a Nut-tree Tussock in VC62. To the probable incredulity of others, the next time I went 'square-bashing' in a new and under-recorded 10k square, I had 11 of them, and it was the commonest species of the session at Horse Coppice, Hovingham (SE67).
