We had a very lively visitor this evening. I grabbed a few shots with the Nikon Coolpix after cooling it down a little, but I didn't like to keep it for too long!

I think it's a Brimstone Moth (Opisthograptis luteolata), but would appreciate it if anyone can correct me.

    A brimstone indeed and a beauty. I have stopped bunging them in the fridge but it is the only way. Can't see it does them any harm.
