Moth identification competition

This moth was spotted resting on a pair of boots on one of our Fundamental Bushcraft courses earlier this month. Can anyone identify it? The first person to leave a comment with the correct answer will win a £10.00 Woodlore Voucher.

Siegfried was the first to answer correctly, winning a £10.00 voucher, but well done to everyone who got it right.
