You may have difficulty finding nocturnal insects at night. This is because they are too active in flying at night; some have the misfortune of approaching a light source such as a lamp, crashing, and then falling to death. If you often ride a motorbike at night on village roads, you have definitely experienced that; something suddenly hits your face, sometimes getting into your eyes.

Moths are one of the many nocturnal insects, although there are several types that are active during the day. A few days ago, I captured two different types of moths. It is certain that both are types of nocturnal insects. They are small and beautiful. One is yellow, and the other is white, and both have spots. However, these were not found at night but in the morning—perhaps they fell asleep on the leaves. Let's see what they look like!
