Salt & pepper

A very common little moth in our garden, but I rarely see one with her skirts spread.  It's the salt & pepper moth or possibly the heliotrope moth; almost impossible to tell apart. ( (Utetheisa lotrix/U. pulchelloides).

I had to put a couple in extras - because it was that sort of day.  I wasn't the only one enjoying the sun.  I think there's going to be a lot of crickets this year - and the mantis is the first one I have seen in the garden for a couple of years.
