I finally managed to find a shy moth, I call this moth shy because of its nature which always hides behind the leaves, it is very rare for us to see this moth even though we have looked for it, this moth is always behind large leaves or under a pile of bushes, the only way to find it is we have to cut and turn over the bushes so that this moth comes out and flies in another direction and that's our time to follow and start approaching it. This moth always sticks tightly to the leaves and very rarely comes out during the day, finding this moth is a stroke of luck and successfully photographing it is an achievement.
When resting, this moth is triangular in shape and relatively smaller than other moths, making it difficult to spot. I love its subtle light gray color, with additional brown decorations.I myself managed to photograph this moth when it was perched on the ground. Honestly, I had to chase it because it flew away several times when I approached it, this success made me very happy because I had wanted to photograph it for a long time and this was the first time I succeeded.
