User's notes
I saw this moth from the corner of my eye, and it settled into a groove in some bark. I couldn't work out what I was seeing, and found it hard to photograph the moth (couldn't get depth of field correct, didn't think to use my phone - wasn't even sure I was looking at something alive, or whether it was a moth). I'm hoping the photos give enough information for ID?
