    I think it's a Lacewing FC.

      Very, very good for the garden. They eat lots of nasties ☺

        Thank you :)

        Pure curiosity as it had landed on the patio door. I don't have much of a garden this year @noisette47 but it is welcome to feast on whatever wee bugs it can find. I would imagine that it will be going into some sort of hibernation/dormancy very soon, given that we are heading toward winter.

          Spot on FC. They'll be looking for somewhere warm to hibernate.☺

            Thoughts on the statement 'a good covering of weeds is as good as a crop of green manure'?
