Emerald moth (Prasinocyma pictifimbria) Geometridae

A beautiful green moth.

 It is fairly small in size and has no identifying marks but I think it belongs to the Geometridae family.

Threaded Looper Moth (Nassinia caffraria) Geometridae

This is another of our pretty moths.
After chasing it for a while and it not letting me get near to it......
I eventually stalked it throught the grass on my stomach. :)
It is about the size of a quarter.
