Thanks Ian, my daughter found and photographed it. She's also got a blurry video but I'll ask her if it's still there.

OK, would be interested to see other photos (i.e stills) , including shots of hindwings and abdomen, if possible. probably eggs, yes, antennae suggest a female.

She doesn't have any other photos and it appears to be gone unfortunately. I'll have to train her better :)

I hope you and your daughter approve?
May I add your daughter's name to the credit?
Thanks,
