Encounter with a Moth.

I was reading something n noticed some fluttering around me... Then it stopped and I noticed a Moth trying to find its feet on the carpet.... Looked like it was injured so I gently lifted it n used the other hand to click it.... What resulted are the photographs below...

     What did moths bump into before the electric light bulb was invented? Don't know about the bulb but it certainly bumped into me.....

    Looks like a butterfly with peacock feather design on the wings.... Moth who had a makeover.

      Leave me alone!! Whats all this fuss about???

    Close up of the eye.... Beauty is in the eye of the beholder n that's me!!

Did I just hear you call me a Butterfly??? U think I m page 3?

Dark & Lovely.

The Butterfly & Caterpillar below, are the same color. But the caterpillar looks more beautiful than the butterfly, because of its surroundings.

 Caterpillars are always considered as clumsy and lumbering. Butterflies are considered as smart and beautiful , and keep flitting  from one beautiful flower to another.

 Just goes to show that  beauty is not what you are born with. It is how you live in a particular environment.....

          “The caterpillar does all the work but the butterfly gets all the publicity”
                             George Carlin quotes (American stand-up Comedian, Actor ,Author.b.1937)

“How does one become a butterfly?" she asked. "You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.”
