    Default Angle Shades Moth - Phlogophora meticulosa

    In my bathroom. I don't think I got the light quite right in the first one so unsure how true the colours are (true to his name he was in the shade, so can't confirm). Beautiful creature, though.

    Yep beautiful indeed, shame it's very difficult to get any of those type of moths with wings open. Good photo nonetheless Louise.

    The other shots I've seen are a little paler with the middle of the darker bits being pinker... but you get the general idea
    Yours don't look at all green to me Beryl, in fact very pink - which they should be.

    I know .
    I don't know what I was thinking about.
    I found mine during the day in a small thicket along the estuary so it was dark though daylight sort of thing and I thought an odd colour
