  1. Gypsonoma sociana? Or Bud Moth Spilonota ocellana ...
    Cracking Scarce Silver-lines, could do with another one of those in the garden this year.

  2. I think your Bud Moth is looking more likely Skev.
    I sent a pic to the recorder earlier, who hasn't got back to me yet, so I took a flyer.
    I've just had a look at the images on Lepiforum, which are better than UK Moths and it is definitely S. ocellana.
    Thanks again mate...I promise not to knock your music ever again
