Thanks ForestDragon, I plan to do some research when I have finished posting last weeks pictures - before the deadline in a few minutes I hope. Moths have never been my interest previously.

This looks like a species of Tortricid Moth, Family Tortricidae. I am not familiar with the species that occur in your area but this should give you somewhere to start looking. Good luck!
