watching me watching you being watched :)
Cydia ulicetana is a moth of the family Tortricidae. The wingspan is 12–16 mm. Adults are on wing in May and in the south again from July to September in western Europe. Males fly in sunshine, while the females tend to be more crepuscular.
The larvae feed internally in the seedpods of various plants, including Ulex (gorse). I'd say the little guy is no more than 2 mm in size - no wonder i did not see it at the time of taking this picture :)
