Sick Moth

by Photon

This moth flew into our bathroom one night, got trapped in the large hem at the top of the curtain. after shaking it out of the curtain it flopped into the bath and lay motionless we thought it was dead. Wing span of six cm. I placed it in on the workbench in the shed for photographing then left it after two days it recovered and left. I have never seen such a large moth before!

Very good close up.

A second image could have had a ruler alongside.

At that size, had it not recovered, you could have used it as a Luffa.....?

Well done.

Too far from a shore.
