    Olympus Evolt E520, and borrowed lenses and flash. Fuji Finepix S7000 for Macro A chair :)

    Default Blood-Vein Moth - Timandra comae

    A rather battered and pale-looking version. It must be an Autumn generation who had a rather wearing winter
    I disturbed it (the only way I get to see them!) and it landed on my peeling white paint... I couldn't see it until it flew off again.

    Yes, they seem to be able to merge with the background, I wonder if they deliberately land on certain coloured backgrounds.
