Not expecting an ID on these seeing as the moth photo's are so bad, these were some lichen-y cocoons which I was finding everywhere and on our block so I tried to grow through to see what came out but they hatched while I was away and by the time I looked at them they weren't great specimens for photographing..

Found this guy in the back window of my car, so I don’t know exactly where it came from.
When I first saw it I wondered if the sun had turned it white, but it’s white all over so surely not?
Although iNat isn’t identifying it so maybe…? 🤔

I have been watching this small, 2.5mm case moth for close on 6 months and this morning I was lucky enough to observe the moth leaving the cocoon. Not sure of this id.

Male, caught in a light trap. Bagworm moth I think. The closest I can find that looks like it is Thyridopteryx sp., not in NZ though
