Peachy location for rest
ID: Yellow peach moth with a tiny spider in the base
Spotted this beauty perched underneath the leaf, probably resting, or sleeping, as it hardly moved when I tried framing the beauty. Though while framing, and getting closer, I realized that the moth was perched on the top of the webbed nest of the tiny spider, almost as if protecting the tiny predator from the forces of nature. Its so interesting to witness the way such diverse species share the same ecosystem without any agitation or dispute

Beautiful colours and details on the moth. It stands out nicely against the dark leaves. The tiny spider can be seen besides it. Its good to see how the species interact. Thanks for sharing.

I love the yellow colour and it contrasts with the green background of the leaf. The spider is actually appearing to be shielded by a big brother. In the natural world, except humans all other species understand how to live in harmony. How much of a crop is this? Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
