Hi Jim
Working up some pics for MPG. Is this photo of a living moth?

This photo with the wings spread, as shown, is no longer a natural posed living moth. This will be the case with most of my moth images when the wings are spread. Before I knew of BOLD I would preserve moth specimens without pinning them. I had to "pin" a fair number of moths previously preserved this way; but I photographed them before pinning them. So some will not show pins, others will show pins. Thank you for your work with MPG!
