Hi Peter
Can't tell what the top one is. It doesn't appear to have fully inflated it's wings.
Bottom one is Buff ermine.
Cheers
Maurice

I really enjoy seeing the unusual insects lined up for identification. I also marvel at how folk on the forum can identify them too. How I would dine out on having those identification skills and knowledge.

The moths presented are unusual looking characters.

Agree top one is Angle Shades. The lines on the thorax are diagnostic.
