First time I've seen one of these, at first glance from a distance I thought it was a very vivid Painted Lady.

Nice Moth.:thumbsup: Haven't seen on down this way. Though they are seen to be common in the South Wast and Wales:)
Wow, striking creature. Been in the wars, though....
I just looked it up on 'UK Moths' - and although it had a few shots, it didn't have one of the open wings... so well done you for getting that!
Pure luck Louise, but then it's nice to get a bit of luck every now and then.:)
I'm surprised I haven't seen one before, because they are so striking.:)
What a beautiful insect!:)
Well done catching it with your camera, Rolf!:thumbsup:
