Wow Kurt, why don't you shot more Lepidoptera? These are fantastic!

The Moon Moths never fail to impress!

Great post! The moon moths amazing!

It's a common misconception, the reality is that moths are as beautiful butterflies!

Moths are beautiful, sure, but same as butterflies...

Antonio, the Lepidopterans don't like me very much. Always play hide and seek with me :D
