ReplyDeleteGreat shot, your image of the Sandpiper is so sweet ;)
ReplyDeletehi all,
ReplyDeleteReally, this moth is looking so attractive with orange colour. A moth is an insect closely related to the butterfly, both being of the order Lepidoptera. Moths frequently appear to circle artificial lights, although the reason for this behavior remains unknown. Thanks a lot.....
