Acleris hyemana

Despite the warmer weather wind and rain have limited moth activity.

05/02 Pale Brindled Beauty and a new micro for the year which I think is Acleris hyemana, it is very worn but still retains some of the distinctive red markings, length about 9mm.. I'm only about a mile from the heather moorland so with the winds we have had it could easily have been blown.
