Is this a small quaker? (1 Viewer)

It was certainly small and it doesn't seem to have the circular mark of a common quaker. :eek!:

Hi Surreybirder,
It could be either Small or Common Quaker, the shot is at a bad angle and the detail is not readily visible. Most of the moths out at this time of the year remain fairly quescent after capture. It would have helped if you could try to get a better angle for the picture. You could try tapping them onto a flat surface and then take the shot square on either from the side or from above. Hope this helps.
Harry Eales.
