It's clearly ravening for your woollens, through the glass. Probably had a whole sheep for lunch.A moth. Species unknown. Location, outside my window 14th November 2016.

I know also can see Sher Khan at the intercept point of the wings. Or possibly a snake's head.
They're playing cards or leaning on a bar chewing the fat, right?or some sort of anteater.

Hence the first part of the species name: ante.That's it. They are notorious gamblers.
The only Hawk Moths I have ever seen are the Elephant Hawk (raised some from caterpillars once), the Poplar and the Humming Bird Hawk Moth. And yes, we really did think it was a humming bird at the time, feeding on Honeysuckle flowers.
Hummingbird moth in the lantana bush. They're so cute, aren't they? Some years we have a lot of them, but the last couple of years have been sparse, unfortunately.
Long considered a messenger of good tidings in Italy and Malta. A small swarm was reported flying over the water in the English channel, headed to England from France on D-Day, 1944.
There is a moth called the December Moth. Maybe a late one? Or it was trying to hibernate in some food packaging until you bought it. You know how moths go crazy around lights? Well every time you opened the fridge door...I found a moth in the fridge the other day. Never mind how it got there, what is it doing not hibernating in the depths of January?

When I was visiting my parents at Christmas, I found a moth caterpillar in the bathroom. Got up to pee in the early hours, saw this thing crawling across the floor. Weirded me out a bit, as it behaved like it had been 'discovered' and tried to do a runner to a crack in the wall. It couldn't get through, so it froze.I found a moth in the fridge the other day.

Why is it not hibernating?

Dave, you've given me caterpillar moth advice in the past but ... are you, in fact, Buffalo Bill from Silence Of The Lambs ? .. (cheers for that btw)
