A nice fresh moth, with a distinctive profile. I couldn't get a shot with the head in view, it kept moving as I tried.

Well, maybe you didn't get the front of the head, but you got a great shot of his punk hairdo.

So it was kind of shy or it wanted you to get it's good side! V

That's quite a massive-looking moth well captured Christine.

Yes, definitely looks like a leaf.

Looks like a leaf walking on a leaf! Love the dark background.

From the thumbnail, it looked like a leaf. Interesting looking moth, nicely captured. V.

The tiny dots are really what it's named after? A strange looking moth but a great photo.

it seems like a fuzzy leaf hopper, but take your word for it on the ID..
