Don't know what it is but it was atached to the leaf making silk strains when I saw it, guess it's preparing to sleep the winter.
Thanks to Chris I know that this is Acronita rumicis, Noctuidae.
An early summer species found in a variety of habitats from woodland to suburban gardens. Adults appear commonly at light and will also visit flowers. It rests by day on the trunks of trees and fence posts. The larvae feed from July to September on willow Salix spp., Hawthorn Crataegus monogyna, Bramble Rubus fruticosus, plantain Plantago spp. and probably other trees and shrubs. It overwinters as a pupa.
World Distribution: Throughout western Europe from Spain to central Scandavinia and northern Finland. |

The POV is not very god but I can say that I'm almost sure that it's Acronicta rumicis (Noctuidae).
