kentish glory moths!! these are absolutely STUNNING with their colour scheme, which is my belowed brown-cinnamon-white mix, i love these guys!! in this video below from Bart Coppens on youtube (link in sources!) you can take a look at how clumsy and cute they are :)

It's a fairly scarce moth that lives in the northern hemisphere eurasia area, which feels mainly on birch and lives in moist marshlands. one of my favourite moths, send them my way or @ me if you find one! :D

I believe this is the peppered moth - Biston betularia - which many will remember from biology classes, where it was held up as an example of evolution in action from the all-black phase which became prevalent in sooty, industrial parts of britain.

It normally lies with its wings flat against a black and white, textured surface where it can be very hard to spot. The unusual pose here might indicate that this is a newly hatched moth that is still inflating and hardening its wings.

In a parallel universe there is a moth with a tattoo of me on one of its legs and that's why I sleep so soundly at night
