This is a female, the male has tails 3-times as long! I will post it sometime. Most of you people may think I'm a photographer-tarzan living on a lush-tropical-island! I have to disappoint you, the photo's were taken in butterfly gardens and the like. Except for the Queen of the Night which actually grows at my place. Soon be posting also photo's in the "wild".

Wowzer's! This is fantastic! The moth couldn't have picked a more suiting colour and texture to perch on.

Wounderful creature. And the composition is perfect, with that colourful moth, on that black trunk. And you are right. This moth sure can compete with the most beautiful of butterflies :-)
