Pingasa blanda
A larger moth, around a 4cm wingspan. Pingasa species rest with their forewings pointing forward.
Attracted to nightlights, located near native bushland.

Thank you armadeus4. Thanks Mark, yes this one is quite similar to yours, really unusual feature with the wings. They look amazing.
Great find Leanne. Very similar to my cabbage patch girl. I wonder if the whole genus can dislocate their forewings like this.
Wonderful spotting of a beautiful moth! The patterns are just lovely. Thank you for sharing :)
Exactly SukanyaDatta. Thank you :)
Yes indeed...and that is the best part...your imaginationa nd nature. Unbeatable. Thanks for sharing.
It's like clouds SukanyaDatta, People all see different pictures :) It reminds me of a moth in a yoga pose!
Thank you Leuba! It was a lucky day for sure.
