Mystery Micromoth
Today was the worst day of the year to be travelling in or out of, or around, Winchester! Why ? The annual 5 -day Boomtown Festival held near Winchester finished yesterday, and now the 60 000 odd attendees were making their ways home. It was raining most of the day to add to everyone's difficulties. I had an early appointment on our side of town which was no problem, but then I made the error of walking into the city centre to shop, and struggled to get a bus home, by when it was raining hard.
Never mind, calm reigned in our garden this afternoon. This pretty moth, with exceedingly long antennae, was fluttering around the lavender, but I haven't been able to identify it .I don't have a comprehensive book on micro moths, which is what is required here.
Paola has.kindly suggested it's a Mint Moth, and I am sure she's correct. So good to have a mystery solved!
