Unknown moth ???

Post by Aughie »

Here are small pair of small moths which I have never seen here before.) They have very fast wing beats practically hovering over my budliah plant. They are delta shaped and one of them clearly has a small yellow marking on the centre of its wings.

i'm sure someone on here can tell me exactly what these are!
Thanks Guys

They're everywhere at the moment. I suspect quite a few have migrated from the continent.
