I've seen shots with the wings fully open (and an amazing sight that is!) but never closed until now.
Excellent!! Well done!

Thanks, Andy. This thing was a mystery to me when I found it in the forest.

Thanks, micritter. I didn't know what it was when I found it, either.

Thank you, Nouchetdu38. It was new to me, too. I see the adult moths sometimes.
