Thanks for the comments everyone! I was certainly fooled. I thought it was a butterfly until Dan identified it.

One of my favourite moth spottings! Thanks for sharing it with us Craig, and congrats on a well deserved spotting of the day!

"This False Tiger Moth is absolutely gorgeous and striking. Its name is clearly very appropriate, since it looks like it has real tiger-striping."
