User's notes
Sorry, this sighting is from Feb, I am still processing some old photos. This Antlion Lacewing was one of the few animals I found on a visit to Callum Brae when the reserve was showing the impact of an extended dry period. This insect seemed to react to my movement, it shifted from the side of the dead branch it was on to a position underneath. It seemed to be well camouflaged against this dead branch, particularly in the shadow covered underside.
