I am wondering where abouts in Sussex this is, It may not be too far from me or it may be the other end, it doesn't say. Lovely picture though.

Fantastic photo LW. They were saying on Autumnwatch that record numbers of Moths, and Butterflys are heading for Britain due to that last warm spell we had, and the one in the photo was one of those mentioned

Yes I remember them saying that WS and I think the markings on this moth are spectacular, they look quite unusual.
