Angle Shades Moth


Angle Shades Moth

I thought this was a leaf on the ground, until it fluttered slowly! I'm pretty sure this is the correct I.D. for it.

I hope this is an enlargement, and the moth isn't really this big?!

Haha Sheila, it is about 2" (50mm) in length and rests with closed wings which is why it looked like a leaf at first.
Do you know, I can touch Butterflies/Moths/Ladybirds but Spiders ... Nooo !

Sheila, many years ago when Michael often worked away from home, if there was a spider in the house I would place a glass over it and wait for one of the children to remove it ... pathetic isn't it?!!
