I was able to get a shot of this moth with its wings open so I added it to the spotting.
Hi SisirBanga Thanks for your kind comment. I do have a passion for moths and all others beautiful creatures Mother Nature has created. Identifying moths is not an easy task and I am by no means an expert. I spend many hours looking through my field guide and searching on the internet. Finding a local internet group is also a big help in IDing. I will follow you and offer help whenever I can. Your photos are very good and I can see that while the species may differ many of the moths you are seeing are similar to ones that I see in North America. If you would like to contact me directly, my email is johnlguerin@gmail.com.
johnlguerin, I have become a huge fan of yours. I am surprised at the no of moths you had spotted along with their ID. I just love it .I have many nothphotographs taken in Tezpur, Assam (INDIA), but I hardly know the names. I have uploaded some and continue to do so, hope you will help me.
