Officially, this is my first post in 'Insects Of The World' community. For my first post, I am posting about a moth that is known as Tiger Moth.
These moth are commonly found around the playground area near my house. These moth does not run away when I approached them to take pictures. As long I did not make a sudden move, the moth will stay at the same spot.
Looking at the pattern on the moth body, I can guess why it is named as Tiger Moth. It's pattern resemble the pattern on a tiger's body.
I took pictures of this moth from multiple angles, so that I can capture the details of this moth's body. The wikipedia link for the Tiger Moth are as follows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amata_(moth)

Secara rasminya, ini merupakan posting posting pertama aku didalam komuniti Insects Of The World. Untuk posting yang pertama, aku post berkenaan kupu-kupu yang dinamakan sebagai Tiger Moth.
Kupu-kupu ini biasa ditemui di sekitar kawasan taman permainan berdekatan rumah aku. Kupu-kupu ini tidak lari apabila aku mendekati mereka untuk mengambil gambar.
Melihat kepada corak yang terdapat pada badan kupu-kupu ini, aku boleh agak kenapa ianya dinamakan sebagai Tiger Moth. Memang seakan-akan corak yang terdapat pada badan harimau.
Aku cuba untuk mengambil gambar kupu-kupu ini dari pebagai sudut. Supaya boleh nampak setiap inci badan kupu-kupu ini. Pautan kepada link wikipedia adalah seperti berikut: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amata_(moth)
