Twenty-plume Moth Alucita hexadactyla

A common but quite unusual micro moth the Twenty-plume Moth. The fore and hind wings each comprise six 'plumes' which are almost feather like in structure. 
The clear nights are keeping the temperature down but I have also added another common micro moth to the year list Agonopterix heracliana.
