Montpelier Station

A new micro-moth for me today at the station - Pammene aurita. This little chap arrived in Britain in the 1940s, the first being seen in Kent. It then spread east and north, but there are surprisingly few records in the Avon area as it probably gets overlooked. Nearby was a Green Shieldbug nymph. On the wall along the platform was an interesting spider which might be a Tegenaria (House Spider) species.
