Hi friends how are you all, I hope you are well and I wish you good health. Today I am sharing with you a small insect that is like a butterfly. However, it is called a type of moth but can fly in the sky. The name of this beautiful insect is Pyraustinae Insect and it looks very beautiful. When I saw this insect, I enjoyed its beauty and because I liked it, I took some pictures with my own mobile in a few shapes and those pictures are presented above for all friends to observe.
I went to my village house a few days ago and while I was sitting in the room at night, I saw this beautiful insect sitting on the door of the house. Since it was night, I first saw it through the electric light and later took some pictures with my own mobile to share with my friends. Of course, I turned on the flashlight of my mobile and took the pictures. When I saw it, it was sitting very beautifully with its wings spread out and I was able to take some pictures very quietly. I see this kind of insect during the day or at night. It can fly in the sky like a butterfly and sits in a particular place for a long time. I have now shared some of the pictures that I took with the Hive community friends. I hope all my friends will like these pictures taken on my mobile. Thank you all friends.
