Wordless Wednesday #19

August 15th, 2007 12:11 am

A few weeks ago I posted a moth that flew into my kitchen to avoid a storm. Tonight I’ve got another one that I found there when I was cooking last night. These shots don’t really do it justice as I didn’t manage to get one of it with it’s wings open while it wasn’t flying.

I hope this dude didn’t fall into the soup!
Great photo.

I’m actually afraid of moths. Makes no sense because they’re harmless but eek.

Tammi on August 14th, 2007 at 10:00 pm

For a minute there I thought it was dead! I like the look of moths, just not flying around my head when I’m trying to sleep!

Alison on August 14th, 2007 at 10:22 pm

happy ww!

Great set of pictures. even if you don’t think you got the best photos, it looks great.

CableGirl on August 14th, 2007 at 10:44 pm

Wow I love those shots with the wings open. Happy WW

RUTH on August 14th, 2007 at 11:44 pm

Hmmm is it a yellow underwing?

Claire on August 14th, 2007 at 11:47 pm

Bugs are not easy to snap, but I think you did a great job!
Now, as a knitter, Moths make me nerveous… LOL
Happy WW!

Isabelle aka Tricotine on August 14th, 2007 at 11:48 pm

I don’t like them in the house, or any other critter either. I don’t kill them I take them outside. Great shots though. Have a great WW.

Good gravy…..that is one big BUG!!!

Lori on August 15th, 2007 at 2:12 am

EWWWWWWWWWW, I am not a buggy person!
I do on the other hand love his coloring!
Great camera shots too!

Excellent series of shots. happy WW xx

Shaz on August 15th, 2007 at 9:59 am

Wow, when the wings are open the colour is outrageously rich! Love the markings too – well captured! I bet you had to be patient to get the ‘action shots..onya!
Happy WW! Ive got a red orchid this week if you get a chance to stop by, Cheers!

He does look huge, and beautiful. How big was he?

Aldon Hynes on August 15th, 2007 at 9:30 pm

He was about 2cm across wings closed and probably 3-4 cm when they were open.
My brain works in odd ways because now I want to know how you tell if he was a he and just what kind of specialist needs to know that for their work…
