Super-rare Moth!

 




This is the Clifden Nonpareil, sometimes described as the "holy grail" of moth trapping. I never thought I'd see one, so I was hugely excited when I saw the flash of blue underwing - no other moth has this. They are impressively large and shaped like the Old Lady moth, which at first I thought it was.
