Garden Tiger Moth

This colourful moth was found laying eggs on a thistle next to Halcyon's boat dyke. It has a very bright red and orange body and bright red and black wings. This specimen was not going to cooperate and show its red wings to us.


Here is a photograph of one with it's winds open (not taken at Halcyon)
