Exactly my thought! :-p I'm always amused when someone from Mexico or Indonesia comments on my dreary spottings "Wow, beautiful, never seen this before!" and I (in my head) "Yeah, of course, and now go back to your birds-of-paradise, poison dart frogs and brightly-coloured butterflies and beetles and and and - :(" But then I take a look at this moth and feel content again ;)
