Clifden Nonpareil Catocala fraxini, I hope I have the ID correct.

It is indeed! Now becoming fairly commonly recorded in Somerset (and almost certainly resident), but this is I think the first to be seen this year.

Moth for ID.
An attractive little moth with an annoying habit of flying and then landing on the underside of nettle leaves but with a little perseverance I did manage this shot.
Westhay NNR, Somerset.

I think it's a Brown China-Mark moth James.
PS: Good to see you at Therfield recently :D
