Just a moth.

Being not an expert in this area, but I have photographed some moth of a certain species which are quite plentiful in Kuantan (Malaysia) at this time of the year; they come flying about in the bright light in early morning hours until late in the morning (when the sun is up) when they then disappear. I suppose I cannot call it disappear, they seem to die for one reason or another leaving their beautiful wings fluttering about on the floor. Do they last for just one day? I do not really know.

What I can say is that the creature is beautiful. The size? The head and the thorax combine is just about 1 inches long.

a moth?

A moth? or an angel? The body was just about 1.5 inch long.

Saw this on the floor under my apartment when I got back last week. A beauty, something that I have never seen before, and I doubt if I ever will see it again. Its now gone ........... forever.
