White Ermine - Spilosoma lubricipeda

Wingspan 34-48 mm.

Widely distributed and fairly common over much of Britain, there is considerable variation in the degree of black speckling, and in certain parts of Scotland, there are forms with a buffish ground colour.

It generally flies from May to July, sometimes later in the south.

The hairy larvae feed on a variety of herbaceous plants.

Super, Heinz!
erstklassige Schärfe und guter Kontrast zum Hintergrund. Der gewählte Blickwinkel lässt sogar das 'Orangebäckchen' aufleuchten: es gehört zur Beborstung des Vorderbein-Femurs.
Schöne Grüße, Peter

Mit Dank und besten Grüßen,

I love these furry moths! It always delights me when I find one. This is a beautiful shot with excellent DOF. The flash seems a bit harsh, but certainly makes the subject stand out against the dark background.

Oooohhh, ein edles Pelzchen hat er sich übergeworfen ;-) Hi Heinz, den möchte man streicheln, so weich sieht er aus.
Du hast diese Motte in erstklassiger Schärfe erwischt, ganz super.
Jetzt mußte ich mich in den letzten Wochen auch rar machen, wir haben ein neues Computerprogramm in der Bank bekommen und ich hab' inzwischen 400 Überstunden und bin ausgepowert! Egal, bin wieder da und freue mich über dieses tolle Bild, tschüssi

Hallo HEinz,
eine super Aufnahme, die Details und die Texturen kommen durch das tolle Licht sehr gut zur Geltung. Die Bildgestaltung ist auch super gelungen vor allem der knappe Bildschnitt gefallem mir sehr gut.

Hi Heinz

This is a lovely little hairy-fairy which stands out so well against the dark BG. The image is very sharp and the colours are natural and pleasing. I like the crooked (or bent) angled line of the leaf running through the image and thus presenting the moth along that line in the frame. You made excellent use of the fill-in flash and managed to control the exposure levels spot-on.

Well done MF and TFS.
Regards
Loot
