I found these two Lime Hawk Moths locked in a warm embrace in the middle of a pavement near our local castle. I’d never seen one of these in my life before, so had to go home and look it up. They were kind/distracted enough to wait in the same place and same position long enough for me to go home and get my camera.
To be honest, knowing my neighbourhood, I’m surprised they hadn’t been squished before I got back – but luck was on their side that day 🙂

another striking thought stopper.
So that ‘is’ a good thing then 🙂
Thanks!

Interesting doublet of moths, Alice. Makes me want to grab the camera and go hike in the hills today.
Interesting term “doublet”. I wasn’t quite sure how to describe them myself 🙂
