Description


From wing-tip to wing-tip only 10 millimetre. I just love this tiny moth. Look how detailed it is. I know I have posted them before, but I think they are fantastic beautiful and now you have the chance to see it from the opposite side. =FULL SIZE= is needed. Have a lovely day. We have a lovely sun this morning and I have taken the big mullein out of the soil and to a place, where it can dry off, so the seed will(hopefully) dry. I am afraid all this rain will spoil the seed. I havent got much knowledge of this plant....or of any other, for that matter, but I am doing my best. Thank you so much for viewing and commenting on my previous post and special warm thanks go to those, who added it to their favorites. :)

This is a beautiful treatment, it makes a nice change to have a plain background, as it shows the moth in all its glory.

Interesting insect. Primitive looking wings like those of thrips, yet it's part of the moth family. From the wikipedia article, this species likes honeysuckle. And the pic is very nice too. It shows the detail.

WOW! What an amazing creature! What details! What a brilliant shot! WOW! And it's funny, also, because when I was a child, I was always fascinated by the wooden clothes-pins my grandmother had from when she hung her laundry on a line to dry naturally in the wind. It looks like this lovely little moth is wearing one of those clothes-pins on its nose! Naturally that made me laugh! Amazing work! I can never see too many of these beauties, and also good luck with the plant. I am sure that some of the seeds will survive. Also, don't mulleins attract a similar moth to this? I am not certain but I think so; they are quite small, if I am not mistaken.
