More Pictures of the Moth.
Hi there Scribblers, thanks for stopping by.
This week I've got a few pictures of a large moth that occasionally visit here. They have large, fern like antenae and can get to about 7cm (3 inches) or so long.
There also seemed to be a black spot behind the head of this one... no fur on it (what do you call the fluff on a moth?), does anyone know what it could have been? It was only maybe 5mm and seemed solid... you can only just see it in the second picture.
The discussion can be found at 
and the specific thread is here.
