I can’t remember what led me to check the few bundles of dried Ash keys still hanging from a short tree alongside the path I walked this morning but I’m very glad I did because I found this stunning little weevil lurking amongst the keys. I’m sure this is the earliest date I’ve ever seen a weevil, more evidence if it were needed of how mild this winter has been.
