VicW Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 We haven't seen one of these for a while. It's a young Ermine moth which I believe aren't usually about until June time. The eggs are laid on dandelion and dock leaves and there's plenty of dandelions about. I think there are buff coloured ones as well.
