Field Notes

Description:

Grey and white moth, resting at daytime on a house wall close to a lantern.

Habitat:

House wall, close to mixed forest

Notes:

If I'm not mistaken, this one should not have been on it's wings until September? I'm probably wrong, but from what I have read it should not have been flying this month.
