In honor of #NationalMothWeek I will be posting #moths. We start with the amazingly beautiful Hieroglyphic Moth, Diphtera festiva, which I have only seen once.

A photo of a yellow, iridescent blue, black and shimmery gold moth sitting on my finger from above. The moth's wings are spread, the head is black. The forebody is yellow with dark blue iridescent stripes The forewings are yellow with the dark blue iridescent stripes on the front part, the rear part of the forewings are yellow with three rows of tiny iridescent blue spots. The hind wings are black with a bright golden sheen to them.

A photo of the moth from the side showing the yellow and dark blue iridescent stripes and spots on the wings

These are the larvae of the Bunaea alcinoe moth, one of the most unusual species of silkworms. They look very menacing because of their large spikes, as well as their red & black colors, in fact these creatures are absolutely safe @ChannelInteres #globalmuseum #catepillars #moths #insects

I was trying to think of a favourite photo from this year, and this face-on shot of a Drinker came to mind. This moth piqued my interest because of its unusual appearance in comparison to other #moths I'd seen this year. It wasn't easy to photograph. It was incredibly lively. #teammoth

Night night to you all, folks, especially those of you on your own. Sleep tight. I saw this yesterday. A Cinnabar Moth caterpillar. Great camouflage. Only had big lens on. Apologies. #MothWeek #Moths #BloomScrolling #NationalMothWeek #macro #photography #ECK

Close-up photograph of a Cinnabar moth caterpillar with distinctive black-and-orange bands climbing through a spray of bright yellow ragwort flowers, its natural food plant. The caterpillar grips a green stem as it feeds among jagged leaves, flower buds, and patches of fine silken webbing. Softly blurred blooms in the foreground frame the scene, while the smooth green background highlights the vivid contrast between the caterpillar’s warning colours and the golden flowers.

Here's a superb Feline from the moth trap here in Normandy. No one despite a lot of followers seems to see my posts so perhaps tick if you see this. #moths
