Pyromorpha dimidiata...

Commonly known as Orange-patched Smoky Moth. First time find for me. It's a lousy capture. There were two of them and they were fast. I'm thankful to get this one.

Well spotted and a great capture.

Very Pretty. It's not blurry at all. Why you say its lousy?

@mittens Thanks, Marilyn!

@hunterjuly Thank you! The focus is too soft and worse, the composition isn't good at all - not balanced.

I like it, never seen or heard of this one before.

Can you ask the inner self critic to go away. It’s a lovely flower and interesting moth so that is good enough for me.

@ludwigsdiana Thanks, Diana! First for me too.

@wakelys LOL! Okay. Thank you, Susan!

Nice composition of this unique moth hanging about. I see part of the 2nd one too.

How cool to capture two at once.
