Hesperia comma
Brown with blueish highlights. About 3/4" or so.
This is a Hesperiidae/Skipper, but not a moth. I am not sure if this really is Hesperia comma. Even in a worn specimen, some of the typical spots and patches should be visible.

Thanks a lot Steffi, I have corrected it!Nick
It looks like some sort of Skipper to me.
