Field Notes

Description:

White with patterns in beige on the wings.

Habitat:

Weeds in a fallow plot of land inside a residential complex. Urban. The area has been sold for a house to be built and there is a wall around its perimeter. Inside is a tiny bit of eventually-doomed biodiversity that includes mongoose.

Notes:

Love is in the air. I thought this was a good way to start Moth week. May moths everywhere find mates, live (long?) and yes, PROSPER!
