Silver Y Moth with wings up
Caption / Description:

The Silver Y (Autographa gamma) is named for the marking on its wings, which looks like the latin letter Y or the Greek letter γ.

This moth, sitting on a window, is unusual in that it is resting with its wings up. Normally moths will rest with their wings down covering their bodies.
