The Last Flights of the Gypsy Moth

Walking I came upon an old gypsy moth
I could tell he was older by the wear on the wings and the fading coloration

Struggling to take off and unable to stay airborne for more than a few seconds
After several attempts it resigned itself to take a break
But it was back at it within a few minutes…..unwilling to accept it was over
