Moth

Description:

The almost fluorescent yellow is masked by the dark spotches...if I crop it (2nd photo) image becomes slightly blurry.

Habitat:

Drawn to the porch lights. Cottage in a remote, hilly and forested area in the northern parts of the state of West Bengal.

Notes:

This one is possibly the one of the last few of the Kolakham moths...I think. This place really was a moth paradise...just that a few shots came out blurred because of he dim light. Had I known about the moths I would have carried a white sheet and a bright light...maybe next time.
