Description


I haven't a clue as to the name of this Moth, so if anybody does know pray tell. I stepped outside the back door earlier today and started work on fixing the outside water tap. I had just about finished and saw something fall from up above and it landed on the back step. On closer inspection this is what I found. It was still alive but very docile, I picked it up as gently as I could and placed it on a paper towel to take a few shots. It was on its back when I found it so that is where I started from. I took a few close ups and then got out the extreme macro lens for the eye shot and the wooly rug shot. I then placed it on top of my ladder in a shaded place, I will check later to see if he's woken up and gone. It was a rush job so not perfect, just wondered if anybody could name him. I have been on several moth sites but not found one like this. Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any comments you care to make. I have been a bit inactive for the last couple or three weeks but hope to be back full time soon. May you all get what you wish for weather wise, we are having some wonderful sunshine just now. Feel free to ZOOM this is a large file.

Nice... Maybe a quite new species. You are the discoverer and Andrea the godmother.
