Spotting

Description:

A strange looking 'tubular' moth about 24mm long with a 'leaning' face forwards and upwards posture. Patterns were a mixture of grey, cream and orange.

Habitat:

Attracted to night lights at the local school.

Notes:

This one could even give our dog some lessons in groking. Yet to search for species.

daschunds certainly are the experts at groking, they think they can stare your meal into their tummies

Ha! You need to watch too much TV. There's an ad that pretends 'to groke' is defined as 'intensely staring at another with food in anticipation of getting some' - like dogs are expert at... a temp name here based upon moth posture. Should have a real ID soon.
