Thanks for the link, Sacha. We had a Swallowtailed moth
(http://ukmoths.org.uk/show.php?bf=1922) in the living room the other day.
I've never seen one before and I would have taken a photograph had it not
been almost exactly the same colour as the wall! They have a very short
breeding season and lifespan so they're not often seen unless you're
specifically looking for them.

Must be all that ivy we have growing up the side of the house...
