Never have been great with moths, but my eldest son found this last year and wanted to know what it was. I have only just found it again, so any suggestions? Keith

It looks like a White Ermine moth to me Madon. Pretty isn't it? They aren't fussy about food but what's interesting about them is that they play dead if they are disturbed. Not a rare find either I'm afraid ;D

Thanks, I did look at that one, but thought the head was wrong, but it was the closest thing. Jennifer hates moths, from a time when she was at Uni. She woke up in the middle of the night with an itch on her chest and scratched it. When she woke in the morning, she found a dead moth stuck to her nightdress!! Not nice.

I'm terrified of anything that flies, including butterflies and birds. I don't mind looking at them from afar, but don't want them fluttering anywhere near me - eeek it makes me shiver just thinking about it.
