A Tiger Moth

Description

This is one of the many beautiful Missouri moths. Most people think a moth is not colorful, but some are. I believe this is a Banded Tiger Moth. ? I love the colors and the shapes of moths as much as butterflies. This was taken on my porch as he landed on my lens cover. Have a wonderful day!!

Exif: F Number: 4.5, Exposure Bias Value: -0.67, ExposureTime: 10/800 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 200, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 50.00 mm, Model: NIKON D80
