Small Purple and Gold, Pt. 3 - _TNY_8844
I seem to have a steady population of mint moths (Pyrausta aurata), also known as the small purple and gold, in my garden. Several times now, I have seen (and shot) them on the thuja hedge surrounding the lawn and they make for wonderful subjects with nice detail and distinct colours.
