Setaceous Hebrew Character Xestia c-nigrum
(Linnaeus, 1758)
Wingspan 35-42 mm.
A distinctive species, which is widely distributed throughout Britain, sometimes commonly. The population is sometimes reinforced by immigration in the autumn.
In the southern half of its range, there are two broods, flying in small numbers in May and June, but far more commonly in August and September. In the north there is just one generation, flying in July and August.
The larvae feed on a variety of herbaceous plants, but especially nettle (Urtica).

Hello Harm,
You take shots moths lately. This moth have modest colours as a few others. Good sharpness and light.
Regards, Pawel
Hi Harm,
Good catch, I like the techniques supported by the fill-in flash. The results are good and provide good details of insects in difficult lighting conditions. The result is an image very demonstrative. what ISO use? I do not see the EXIF.
Good job, good approach!
