Even more moths

I've been lazy as usual with the moth trap - and I am using the excuse of a wet summer. But I have managed two new species - Green Silver-lines and Small Magpie Moth.
I often see Hummingbird Hawkmoths during summer days in the herb garden feeding, as you'd expect, like hummingbirds - probing their long 'tongues' into flowers whilst hovering on the wing. Difficult to photograph, as they never keep still - but I managed to take this snap in the nieghbour's garden.
