Common Quaker.
(Orthosia cerassi)


This Common Quaker moth was amongst the leaves on the gravelled flower bed.

Information:
The Common Quaker moth has a distinctive 'round shouldered' look. The pattern of lines and shapes (ovals and kidney marks) shown in this photograph is typical although the colouring varies considerably. It flies March-May and may be confused with the Small Quaker.
