    Default Moth - Eudonia mercurella

    It doesn't seem to have a common name. I posted the second shot because I loved the reflections effect

    What does fascinate me with Moths is how different the colours can look. The first shot shows the moth as black and white, yet from the side angle it looks more brown and white.. which doesn't help considering how difficult it is to work out which moth is which when you DO know what the colour should be
