Satellite, North Elmham, 18th February
Also an Ichneumon that looked quite distinctively marked so I thought I'd try to identify it... I think it's Ophion obscuratus - one I've never identified before.

Also a Common Flat-body Agonopterix heracliana by the porch. I've dissected the two from last weekend in the hope of confirming my presumption that they were heracliana not ciliella. One looked a bit promising for ciliella when I saw its hindwing, but they looked identical internally and, I think, better for heracliana. They're not easy to do even under the microscope - I shall be more confident when I've seen what a real ciliella looks like for comparison.
