User's notes
I was awakened in the middle of the night by soft thuds coming from around the room, and discovered this moth flying into the walls and ceiling repeatedly. Eventually it perched on the curtain and I photographed and then removed it to outside. I suspect a Bogon, but it is years since I have seen one.
