Very striking and quite large.

Another large moth as they go 45-55mm.

This guy was on the ceiling part of the bridge, but the flash shows you exactly why its got its name.

Finally I have a pug :)

This guys was a pain to photograph, not only was he thin and sitting oddly, he was also up near the top of the wall. I had to stand on my other half's shoulders to get this..lol

This is one of the Flame Shoulder moths, I'm having a major fight with myself however about which one. Any suggestions are welcome. Details about my concerns are in the notes.

All I have to go on, are the few sites that I usually find to be very accurate. There are two types of Flame Shoulders in the UK, one is quite common the Flame Shoulder (Ochropleura plecta) and the other is a occasional migrant to south coast areas Radford's Flame Shoulder (Ochropleura leucogaster) . If I'm to go by the above information I believe this maybe what I've been waiting for, a migrant to our south coastal area. Well update, Mike Wall from Back Garden Moths and the man behind Hants Moths (a great site if you're saving bookmarks) has dashed all hopes this is a rare migrant, hes just your average guy, like me :/ LoL
