What is this insect?

[LookMumNoFeet]

Anybody knows what this is? I've never seen anything like it before. It's about 1.5 cm long and wide

is it in the uk

It looks like a sort of stick insect.

I think its a moth

Yes UK, South East

It's a plume moth.

I'm not sure which one.

It doesn't look like it has wings, just sort of stick like things on the sides (or maybe folded wings, I don't know..)

It's a Plume Moth I think!

I've seen them before. I think it's a type of moth.

Oh we get those, they are particularly attracted to the bathroom wall for some reason.

We call them Angel of the North jobs.

Yay I was right - plume moth. I'm in South East and see lots of these. I like moths

Clever mumsnetters! It is a plume moth.
I was hoping it was a rare species of some sort but apparently they are quite common.

We get lots here, they’re lovely. They’re wings are tightly curled up and they are called plume because when unfurled they look like feathers.
