Mint Moth

As promised, another photo of a mint moth (Pyrausta aurata), muntvlindertje in Dutch.

These moths are tiny; they have a wing span of about 15mm (0.6") which makes them hard to spot.


Olympus XZ-1, 112mm, ISO100, f4, 1/200s

You can find another photo of this species here (last photo), where it sits on mint, as it should.

Thanks for watching!
