Not a character to meet on a dark night!

About 5cm
Amazing how such a small thing can mimic a Halloween face!.The eyes and 'nose' are just patterns on the surface. Taken on a rose leaf in natural light. It will become a Lackey moth only to be attracted and fried on the nearest floodlight!

  • This one was ready to pupate, it was slow moving and sometimes unresponsive to the odd poke. I didn't test to see if there would be a skin reaction (on me) from the hairs, I poked with a stick!<br />
