Field Notes

Description:

A bizarre moth i found hovering around while walking trough the beautiful forest around my home in Broummana, Lebanon. Its colors were fascinating. At first i thought it was a ladybug - but then i realized that while its colors resembled that of a ladybug, it didn't have an outer shell.
