Moth 2
Originally uploaded by Decobabe.
Thursday night I saw her arrive from the corner of my left eye. She was dressed in brand new clothes and decorated for an evening out.
I was so excited that my hands trembled while I was taking this photo, so this is as sharp as it gets. Sorry.
Is she not just lovely? Did she not deserve a better fate than trapping herself inside a house on her first flight of her life?
I thought so, too, so I collected her on a piece of paper and tossed her out of the kitchen window. That’s the opposite side of the house from where the bats circle under a street light picking off mosquitos and moths.
