  1. This moth has such an underwhelming name for being so insanely complex in its pattern.

    As a side note, would be cool when the next time a guest enters you home, you get all hysterical: HAVE YOU NO MANNERS??? GET BACK OUT THERE AND FIRST WIPE YOUR FEET AT THE MUDDY DOORMAT!"

    1. I agree with the really boring name!

      And I'm totally going to do that with all the moths that I find in my house now! :D

      1. Except for this one of course, as it was already complying :o)
        Nice camouflage shot Lisa! Cheers, Arp
