Pyralis farinalis
Resting on a wall in an outer urban back yard this moth had about 18mm wingspan. Typical curled abdomen?
Suburban back yard with surrounding eucalyptus based national parks and nature reserves.
Common name 'Meal Moth'
Family: Pyralidae
Subfamily: Pyralinae
Around here we have equal problems with Plodia interpunctella - Indian Meal Moths!
Yes the season is on Vinny :) and I haven't put them all up yet.
@catgrin thanks for that ID - it looks right unfortunately... an invasive, naturalised, and after my oats.
