the Leptodermis is in its second flowering which is pretty impressive anyway. It abuts the China Valley Path not too far off the road on the downhill side. I have been noticing butterflies attending upon the flowers for the last few weeks; today I noticed this moth. Since the plants were in full sun the shutter speed was fast enough to stop the wings.
