Brindled Flat-body Moth (Agonopterix arenella)
This lively micro-moth looked as surprised as me when out of nowhere it flew close by my shoulder and landed on the kitchen door behind me.
I'm assuming I must have accidentally disturbed it as I gently went about my winter gardeing jobs.
It was a new moth for my collection and you can both see it and read about it here:
"Agonopterix arenella" is a species of moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in all of Europe, except the Iberian Peninsula.
