Week 20 by Robin

Interesting Moth

This moth has been hanging around the front yard for days. Cool markings and "hair". I tried and tried to ID it, but can't find it anywhere. I've never seen this species before. Anyone else?

Judy found it! It's a Hieroglyphic Moth!

  1. Have never seen a moth like this. It does have some very pretty markings. Nice capture. Did you take this with your macro?

  2. Yes, this was taken later in the day with my macro lens handheld. No flash, ISO 250, Shutter 1/200s and f/3.2

  3. Way to go Robin. Beautiful capture. That is one cool moth. The deep rich green brings out the moth. I really have a hard time doing hand held.
