I'm definately not a scientist, but isn't natural selection different from evolution?

I understand natural selection a little bit; the black moths live because they are less noticeable whereas the white moths get eaten and therefor get phased out, but is there any evolution in that? If the moth grew legs and a beak then that would be evolution. As far as I can see natural selection and evolution are 2 different things.
The first black moth could have been an evolution from white moths
