its beautiful and the photo is great
i thought of Clostera, then i thought maybe it could possibly be a woodworm (or close to)but its not there, and i think it must be one of the looper moths..in Plusiinae not much help i know..i like this moth alot..

Yes, I like this moth a lot too
But I would like it a whole lot better if it had a name and could be moved into a permanent home!!
