This wilderness is located in an inland village, precisely in the Biram location near a rocky river. Many of God's creatures live in high mountain hills covered with very shady trees.
The land is also damaged, this place would be very exciting if used as a camping site. I once spent the night there while fishing upstream of the river. When I visited this place I brought a macro lens and two cellphones in preparation for photo hunting when I got there.
Walking from a village about 1000 meters to the climb the next day at seven in the morning I woke up but at that time I forgot to take photos of the beautiful view there. Maybe if I visit there again I will take photos of the beauty of the mountains there.
And that morning three friends invited me to hunt for fish after breakfast and I took my leave for a moment to hunt for macro images in the area. Coincidentally the weather was a bit dark, smoky and a bit cold, maybe the area was in the highlands.
Then I immediately went hunting for pictures. That's when I first encountered the insect Dysdercus cingulatus. I found many of them in the grass trees. I pointed the camera at him to take some pictures.
I managed to take several photos of them, some of them mating and some of them alone. I only took a few pictures of this insect species and I immediately went in another direction looking for objects other than this first insect.
Then after a few meters I departed from the first place I took the photo. I met a unique species of moth, this species was standing on the crown of a grass flower, I think at that time this species was sucking nectar from the flower.
I was shocked when I first saw this moth because I had been hunting for pictures for a long time and only now did I find a moth as unique as this, and I realized that there might be many other species out there. more unique than this.
This is one of my current realizations, sometimes we think that we are the ones who understand all aspects best, but it turns out we don't... there is still a sky above the sky, as the saying goes. Arrogance is like a frog under a coconut shell. I think you must have heard that saying. .
Back to the topic of discussion....! and I photographed this moth with several pictures. You can see the uniqueness of this moth in the picture I uploaded.
I myself am very interested in this species. Take a look at the two strands of hair this moth has, like a comb. Not only that, this moth also has a pattern like the color of a dairy cow.
I have also looked for references about this moth and I managed to find, according to the references I got, this moth species is scientifically named Nyctemera luctuosa.
Friends, after a while I managed to photograph this species of moth, I saw a very delicate young bush cricket near where the moth was standing.
Yes, of course I also photographed it, but it was very difficult for me to photograph this object, meaning to get a detailed image because the object is very smooth and the color of this cricket is green, this is of course difficult to photograph.
I slowly turned the camera towards him. This is my trick for photographing insect objects so they don't fly or disappear.
This bush cricket also has a scientific name which is generally called Phaneropterinae and after I photographed it several times then I heard a call from a friend who told him to have breakfast and after breakfast we would go looking for fish in the upper river.
Friends, at that time I was forced to leave the hunting location to have breakfast, and this is the story of the hunt I did while in the shady forest near a rocky river. When I got there, before I went hunting for fish, I had time to hunt for macro images for a while and at that place I managed to take several pictures of unique insect species.
