Thx

Thanks for the second shot Frederic. There's some shape, colour and pattern in it. Now the lepidopterans in here can have a go at it. :)

Judging by the shape, it appears to be a moth. I think these spottings can help people ID to family sometimes just by silhouette.

It looks like that when the wings are closed.

Hi Frederic... and welcome to Project Noah! This one is very difficult to see. Are we looking at the white clothes-peg shape low centre? It is impossible to hope for an ID here and unfortunately that's what makes the PN system work - ID, time and location. Do you have any other photos of this? If you do please add them otherwise it is probably best to remove the spotting. If you have unclear shots sometimes they can be enhanced by an excellent description. Thanks for understanding and please keep posting.
