Swan Moth

Euproctis similis

Description:

White moth, shiny, with very light yellow markings and yellow body,beautiful and furry, "White wedding Moth" I would call her.

Notes:

Swan Moth will do also....Hope this is allowed, the same type of Moth or maybe the same one (a month later) was laying eggs, fascinating.
