..........And its the world's worst photo of one! Unfortunately it is somewhere in my house having absconded from a photo shoot. Tonight I will try to lure it out using a BLB tube on the outside of a window. This technique has worked before when similar sized moths (usually micros) have flown into the house! So with any luck a full update later with some half decent shots of this garden 1st will appear shortly.

This is actually quite a rare moth in VC30 with only 9 previous records on the data base. Though this is probably not a true reflection as a fair few have probably been dismissed as micro moths.
