Moth Amata phegea

in Fascinating Insects2 years ago

Hi Community,
I was looking for place to post this.

A moth - Amata phegea .

They were always friendly & harmless although they got a poisonous relative which they mimic.

There is even a tiny guy on the rim of the bag I only noticed when viewing the image.

Trying to focus it. Catch a ladybug & strawbery in the back 😄

I managed to spook these two before being able to manually adjust the camera.

Thanks for stopping by.

Support is appreciated.
