There is a vacant lot next to our home. A variety of wild plants grow almost everywhere on that lot. Because of those plants, the lot has become a habitat for different kind of insects. I can’t actually identify many of these insects. Well… I don’t really know much about insects except for the very common ones.
However, I have been very interested in taking photos of these insects. However, catching them with point and shoot digital camera or a phone camera is quite difficult.
Thanks to modern technology though, the AI in a camera phone helps taking good photos.
One of the tiny flying creatures that I always see is this four-winged moth (I think it’s a moth anyway). From the little knowledge that I know moths don’t usually fold their wings up when they are not flying. This one had a pair spread laterally, and another pair is folded vertically.

I have seen it before and I didn’t know what it is, but people told me it’s skipper. Great capture!
Yes, this is a skipper. I use a few sites for ID, here is one: https://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/gallery
I will check that site out. Hopefully it could help me identify the other species of moths and butterflies and other insects that I see flying and crawling around.
Thanks, Carol.
Let me know if you can’t find something, I have more sites!
I will post a photo of another strange looking insect soon. :).
Thanks again.
I think google by photo
