Sorry baa, I meant to say the Eyed hawk Moth is amazing too, I'm not sure I have seen one, but I have seen some interesting ones a few years ago and you can forget. It does look familiar, not sure about the eyes though!

There has been the Hummingbird Hawk here a couple of times, but I missed it.

I went between the shrubs and hedge trying to follow the Gatekeeper butterfly, and out flew this dainty little moth I think it is. It looks too small and not quite right to be a Brimstone Yellow, the closest there is in my book.
