I think this is a police-car moth (Gnophaela vermiculata). It’s visiting hydrangea flowers (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Quick Fire’).

A small black-and-white moth visiting white hydrangea flowers. The flowers are of two types, the larger, bright white individual florets, and the clusters of tiny, fluffy-looking creamy-white flowers. These fluffy ones are the good bits that the moth is busy with. A light tinge of pink is just visible on the edges of some of the florets. This is what this particular hydrangea (Quick Fire) does. The flowers start out white and age to pink.
