Thanks for posting these... I'd love to get out there and take some moth photos, but I think I said before that I'd need to set up something that would lure them into the garden, rather than rely on random finds... I haven't had the luck you've had so far

Again these aren't in my books; the clear winged moth looks rather like our Wainscot Moth, or maybe even a Ghost Moth, but unlike this one those two have fluffy bodies

As for the big one... that's quite spectacular and would certainly be well-known if he were resident here... I've never seen anything quite like it! This photo is a good illustration of camouflage: if he were on a silver birch tree then he'd be very hard to spot
