Moth Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

I caught a moth! And I had a ball doing it!

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  Many think the moth is strictly a nocturnal creature.

 Alas, no! These frightful fluttering beasts have been known to haunt the daylight and twilight hours too.

 Thus, there is no time of day one might escape the moth trait I dislike most of all—those feathery antennae!

 The mere thought of them gives my feathers goosebumps. And I'm no goose.
