I think he is too attractive to be a moth but the genius that is social media tells me this is the Two Spot Tiger Moth.
It seems rather fitting that I would find my eye drawn to this insect today rather like a moth to a flame.
It was day one back at work for the year and by 2pm I really needed a little lie down. Truth is I felt a little moth-eaten where the definition is decayed or worn out and not more literal meaning of having been eaten or damaged by the larvae of moths.
The first couple of days after a break are always such a struggle aren't they?
By next week I won't even remember I've had time off therefore it must be time to plan my next holiday. Only 326 days until Christmas (yes, I am counting actually).
the last day before a holiday and the first day back at work afterwards are just awful! such great detail on the moths body and wings x
