This pretty, speckled moth is now a rare sight, found only in a few parts of southern England.
This unmistakable moth spends the winter as an adult, tucked away in a sheltered spot like a cave or outbuilding.
This beautiful moth is often found resting on leaves, though it does also fly during the day.
