Like the look of the moth Early Grey,just a shame it's not called Earl Grey instead!
As it happens, this particular individual did manage to inadvertently drop the Y - just after photographing it (note the wings are held a bit open as it was mid-way through revving up) it took off and flapped about manically in my kitchen for a few seconds before nosediving into my nice steaming hot mug of tea. The moth survived, albeit minus most of it's wing scales, and flew off strongly after I rescued it, but my tea was fucked.
