It was a perfect emerging and the moth became perky very quickly.
When I released it, it flew off strongly. Fortunately we have a lot of Swan Plants nearby.
The moth measures about 15mm across the wings, which look quite flutey. The marks on the wings, that appear a white-cream colour in my photos, are actually almost transparent and you can see through them.
It's such a beautiful moth and how wonderful to experience one emerging.
