Butterfly/Moth -can someone identify this insect?? Hey. rather weird question, i know. But last year I saw one of
these in our garden. I've seen a lot of butterflies in my life but this one is a new species for me personally. Last year I tried to take pictures but before I got my camera, a bird ate it and left only a wing on the ground, sadly. Now, today, I've seen another one. So that's the second one I have seen in total. It appears to be more like a moth, except that it comes out in the daytime, which would seem rather weird for a moth, to sit on a wall if full sunshine. Is this a common species? Or is it a kind that's moved up from the southern part of Europe due to the mild climate shift we are experiencing in the last decade or so?? thanx. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

yes, it does, doesn't it. do moths come out during the daytime as well? perhaps that explains it and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Definitely a moth. One set of wings lying flat (horizontal) with the body. Butterflies generally have two sets of wings and close them vertically above their bodies . Having said that I have absolutely no idea what species it is. Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC). Virgil was such a lying bastard! | |

hey thank you. that's good information there! I just had a quick look at some web sites, and this doesn't really fit into any european categories. Is it as big as it looks? some of the sites have a "submit an unknown" you might what to try that - but what a monster!! Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC).
