Every day something new

It caught my eye as I walked towards the kitchen door
A scarlet tiger moth

It might not be rare but it is a treasure to me – I’ve never noticed one before

When it spreads its wings there is a brilliant red down the middle of its back

You can just glimpse the red as it’s wings flutter

  1. Lovely day flying moth but watch out for their caterpillars – yellow and black stripes and really active as they march from one decimated plant to another! They stripped my two big peony plants this spring back to the main stalks!
