| | | Lunar Underwing??
Found this moth trying to get into window. The pic was taken on automatic hence the low DOF. I've tried to ID it and the nearest I have found is a lunar underwing. Can anyone confirm yeah or neigh please?  
Many thanks. |

Thank you Lance and Wildlifesnapper for the ID...I think Wildlifesnapper is correct, as the Gothic doesn't appear to have the feathered antenae(sp.). Tis always nice to put a name to a critter.
Thanks once again guys.
