Unknown moth to a complete beginner!

Apologies if this is the moth equivalent of 'what does a blackbird look like?' but could somebody id this moth that came into our house last night (Norfolk) Am interested in this, but at the minute I know absolutely nothing about them!

Rock Dove?

Put two and two together.... got six? The spot where I took the photo is quite a regular haunt for the local barn owls - must admit I thought it had had a hard life!!? Never seen this one before, any ideas if they are rare or just an offshoot?

Rock Dove?

Very embarassingly, I thought this was a juvenile Barn Owl - but have been told it is actually just a Rock Dove. Can anyone confirm it for me please? Am just surprised due to the size and shape of it!

Warbler - Norfolk Garden

Sure this is an easy one, but I can't tell who this is? Not good at telling warblers and the like apart yet! It has been hanging around my garden all day, quite close to the sea if that is of any help!

Brambling?

That's what I thought - it was moving quite slowly but flew off quite happily when I moved closer. I thought maybe he had just changed his plumage, thought that could be why he looked so fluffy? But he was definitely a bit slow

Brambling?

Saw this bird in my garden today - I think it is a brambling in summer plumage, but was a bit confused as I didn't think they would still be around? Can anyone confirm it for me please?

Just Starting Photography

Hi everyone, I have been a birder for ages but have only just started trying to photograph them properly! Any tips/feedback at all will be most appreciated! I have attached one I took today of a Goldfinch in the garden, I guess it is easier to go for garden birds first and then move upwards?
