Motheaten moth.

Come on. Someone out there knows what kind of moth this it. Educate me!

This is a birthday Blip, I am umpteen today. Work got me a chocolate caterpillar cake, delicious!! Unfortunately it meant that I kept thinking of that annoying kid's silly poem; 'Cecil is a caterpillar, and Cecil is my friend, and last time I saw Cecil....'

I found the moth wandering across the tarmac as I walked home. It seemed to like the warmth of my hand and didn't really want to be transferred to the safety of the Cotoneaster beside the road.

Update; It is a Garden Tiger moth.
