Angle Shades Moth

Anyone know what sort of moth? (now identified and header changed)

I think it may have hatched out today and is sitting on the plant drying, as its wings (lovely colours) did not seem fully stiff yet.

I found it as dusk was falling, hence the rather noisy photo as I had to push up the ISO to stop lens shake.

Its in a greenhouse. Roasting with the cats. I will look for it tomorrow and see if it wants to go outside. Its about an inch long from head to tail so quite a big moth. Rather nice its been in there all winter, waiting for the right moment.

Weird but beautiful isn't he or she. So furry.
