Winter Moth (Operophtera brumata). I found this on my front door in #Bath #Somerset #UK. One of the few winter-active moths. This is a male, females have very tiny wings and cannot fly

This is a fun moth to look for at this time of year, Cauchas fibulella. It's Britain's smallest longhorn moth, and it hangs out during the day on Germander Speedwell flowers.
I've found it before out on the Downs but this is the first time I've found it locally in south London.

CW: Mothing Monday #13 Puss moth
Meet the Puss moth, Cerura vinula. It has a Wingspan of 45-70 mm, so relatively large. Common in the UK, but few have seen one, as they are nocturnal. Named for reasons of obvious fluffiness of its dense, white, hair.
All moths are humanely trapped, recorded on the Sussex and UK databases, & safely released.I usually follow back, & really appreciate boosts.

CW: Moths, with images.
I had such a positive response to my first moth post, I'll do more. All from my back garden, nocturnal, and released back into the wild.
This is a Puss moth, Cerura vinula, wingspan about 60mm.
I always follow back, and am really grateful for a boost.
