You Won’t Believe This ‘Twig’ is Actually a Moth!

Buff-tip (Phalera bucephala). by Bob Eade A similar image to one I did last year. However, this one the eyes are showing, and they are lower in the head than I was expecting. I can't recall being able to see the eyes on any other shot I've taken of this species. The scales on the wings of this species are quite large and it is worth viewing larger to really see the scales. https://flic.kr/p/2kZV5Zm
