Not a moth but I have just seen a Small Tortoiseshell battling against the wind up here in Chippenham (not even in Somerset!).  There has been increasing concern for this species as numbers have dramatically declined over the past two years - possibly due to a new parasitic tachinid Sturmia bella.  This is the first I have seen anywhere this year.
