It does look like a moth doesn't it but I can assure you it is a butterfly. The large skipper can be identified by it light chequered pattern on its wings. Which this one has, so a large skipper it is.
Not a great photo, I will try and get a better one if it returns.
I wouldn't have picked this out as a butterfly without a good look, well done you for catching it so quickly :)
