We found this poem of nature Moth (Laothoe populi) on the descent to the river in the alley, on the handrail sleeping. Having as a measure of comparison the stick that is used to hold people, you easily understand that it is a little smaller than the palm of the hand. He didn't move at all while we were photographing.
