Wasp moth | Amata huebneri
Hello everyone, good afternoon wherever you are, how are you this afternoon? Hope you are fine wherever you are.
I"m back here again and on this occasion I want to show you some beautiful shots of wasp moths. In Latin, this moth is known as Amata huebneri which comes from the Erebidae family. The colors of this moth are very unique, similar to the colors of tigers, orange and black. Its body is orange decorated with black ribbons. What an interesting color combination. Apart from its attractive color, there are other unique characteristics found on its two wings. The boxes are like transparent windows on both wings.
When stopping at a place, its two wings are always spread out, never brought together. As long as I was nearby, the two wings did not move at all. Only the antenna is in play. The two antennas are always moved until he flies again to move. It flies very slowly and not high, its height is equivalent to the plants around it. The flying distance is also not far. It seems that this moth likes plants or bushes that are not too tall. Maybe such a place is easy to hide from predator attacks.

Beautiful photos dear.
I remember when I wanted to snap a butterfly, I almost ran round the farm and ended up not getting a good photo of it😂😂😂
So, you did great.
Thank you very much and hopefully one day you will also be able to photograph it.
