I am pretty sure that all of the Bagworm Moths that I have spotted, prior to this one, were seen on the underside of a leaf or twig with the "bag" hanging down. As you can see, this one is on the upper surface of a leaf and is moving around with the bag in an almost vertical position. I assume this is simply because it is young and the bag, being small, is light enough to allow this freedom of movement.
Spotted in our backyard on an unidentified broad leafed plant, possibly in the Family Araceae.
