Found this lurking behind the front door today, no idea what sort of moth it is but it was quite happy to pose for the pictures.

great pics - #2 is a cracker.

OK Martin... how come you know so much about bugs? (I'm sure you have a book or two - but did you do bugology at Uni or something?)

Ah.. O.K. Good on you then.

BTW that second pic looks like my old maths teacher.
