Juniper twig geometer

I hope there's enough detail here. This moth was at a difficult angle, very high up on the outside of a building, right under the eaves.
And I believe this ID is correct, any input most welcome.

  Hi Ferdy..not so lucky with the continuing weather here though, strong winds (up to 46kph due tomorrow for example). I did put the sheet up yesterday, but I could see it was no use. If I'm not lucky specifically for moth week, I'll be utilising the lamp I bought just as soon as I can. Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago
