Micromoth - Micropterix calthella

I spotted these on the stalk of a dandelion, it was the shiny yellow/gold colour that caught my eye and the fact that there were several of them. It wasn't until I got home and saw them on a big screen that I realised that they looked like moths.... These micro moths are usually difficult to identify.... however these were the first I saw on a website I use for identifying bugs, beetles etc
