Moth On A Wall

 

Antler Moth In Scotland

From what I can tell, this is an Antler Moth (Cerapteryx graminis). The pattern on it looks like the Antler Moth certainly. 

Everyone loves Butterflies, never met anyone that didn't BUT I have come across people who haven't liked Moths? Which I think is weird, I think Moths are wonderful too.

    I have to admit that I prefer butterflies too. But of course every living being is wonderful in its own way. :)

    ...both moths and butterflies are good pollinators.

    Moths aren't quite as graceful as butterflies.

    They have mothballs but not butterfly balls, so one is definitely less popular than the other.

    I think it’s because moths are nocturnal that people like them less than butterflies, which are just diurnal moths anyway.

      Not "might be," Ananka. It's a fact. Butterflies are a subgroup of moths in the large order of insects called Lepidoptera.

    I think those who don't like them is because they haven't seen them well...
    Well done!
