Used inaturalist service for the first time, to share my wildnature observations - the beauty of this nocturnal moth just demanded that from me, hehe.

Luckily, I encountered it during the daylight - lighting was good (with no harsh direct sunlight). The moth was sitting quietly at same spot during several hours and posed me very well.


My post also goes for #Photofeed macro photography challenge, Round 172

THX for correcting me! 🙏 done.

Wow! Beautiful!

It is! we usually encounter much smaller nocturnal moths, and they prefer not to explicit all their beauty in the daylight. so this was a great breaking of the rules. so handsome. 😍 😍 😍

An interesting resource. I decided to sign up for it too.

A good idea. You definitely have some great stuff to share -- as you live closer to wild nature than me. THe more markers on inaturalist map - the better... I think. Lets share Hive !BEER and raise a bottle for the success of our venture.

Да будет так :)
