A chance sighting of this little bag moth larva eating specks of green lichen on a brick wall. Just ten millimetres long it worked its way around the wall all day feeding.

The adult moths are very beautiful, this male was photographed on a window.

The female’s wings are abbreviated, she cannot fly and has to walk everywhere, this one was photographed wandering on the forest floor.
