I almost accidentally killed this little fellow, but it was nice enough to stay still while I got some macros then it flew away

Looks too fuzzy to be a butterfly...nice autumn colors on it...

This is a nice image of a Snout Butterfly. I just posted an image of one just a few days ago. They belong to the smallest family of butterflys (Libytheidae) and there are only about a dozen species worldwide. Two of these species live in North America but there are Snout Butterflys on every continent that has butterflys. They are a very old species. Fossil remains have been found in shale formations that date them back for at least 30 million years.

Wow, I've never seen anything quite like it! I'm sure it was happy that it was an almost, and not a RIP!

Fabulous macro shot of this real curious looking insect! It looks like a moth but I'm also not sure! Ido not think that it's a mutant! LOL Thanks for sharing with us!

Very lovely little butterfly. I also photographed what I thought was a furry moth only to discover it was a butterfly... Really nice shot and lit well enough to pull out many details.
