Yes, in most cases adults are very modest... Have a great day you too! :))
moths caterpillars looks nicer than adults, adults are colored depressed :D that why I choose plants and butterflies :)) Have a nice day and upload more beautiful spottings, I have to go to work :(
I checked how the caterpillar looks :)) Really beautiful combination of colors! :))
haha will be the best to find caterpillar and see the process of development, also they are nice colored black and red (I'm color freak)...
Lymantridae are really amazing! :) I spotted this one last year, but I will try to find it next year, too! :)) Or I have to find a caterpillar and raise it myself :D :))
you're welcome :) Moths are interesting to me last few months, and Lymantridae are my favorite! You have to go find it again and spot the cute tail :))
That was fast! :D Thank you very much! :)) I like them, too! They are so fluffy and cute! :)) Such a pitty I didn't notice the yellow/orange tail ! Next time I will be smarter and will pay extra attention to it! :))
