Sweetheart Underwing

Sweetheart underwing moths feed at night and rest on the branches of trees during the day.

During flight, the pink and black underwings are visible and attractive.

But, if seen by a hungry bird, the sweetheart underwing lands on the nearest tree,

closes its wings to hide the bright colors and "disappears" because its front wings look like the tree bark.
