    dongan kasakuyan indoo muu
    rosuto uiraadoa, hanba hanbamuyan
    randa banunradan tounjukanraa
    kasaku yaanmu
    Mosura ya! Mosura!

    Those two little island girls were cute. I would have picked a more ... imposing protector, but Mothra got the job done.

  5. Ok, ok... it's a moth. A really, really big one. I started to just show a piece of wing to make the mystery more difficult, but it wasn't a very attractive photo like that.

  6. I also immediately thought 'Moth'.

    But how come we all thought that?
    What is it about that picture which says 'I am a Moth' and how come we all picked up on it so fast.
