I've attached a couple of the pictures I took with my phone. It fed for about 5 minutes, then flew off.
I'd seen it about 20 minutes earlier flying around a bramble/old man's beard hedge and knew it was something I hadn't seen before, but couldn't see it clearly then.
There is a goat willow in the garden, and I think there are a lot of goat willows in a wooded area nearby.

Hello Di,
very interesting.
one of our members [upper thames branch] had a similar experience in his chinnor garden last year, when a female visited his buddleia two days running, staying several hours.
I posted his photos on the purple empire too

Hi Di Napier. I am glad the post finally came through. I tried to access your photos yesterday, but was only granted entry to the Facebook page this morning. I was certain folks here would be interested in seeing this. Just glad to see the post made it.
