Unusual library visitor

Jane spotted this Lime Hawkmoth in the library today!

It was clinging on to the corner of the table that the card catalogue stands on - maybe he was looking for a book on his friends?

It likes urban lime trees apparently.

We released him back into the wild (well, as wild as Downing Street gets!). Thanks to Neal Maskell for identifying it for us.
