Pretty in Pink

I spotted two Rosy Maple Moths taking shelter inside the petals of the tall primrose.

I wonder if their choice of respite is a form of camouflage. The pink buds of the primrose resemble the blush colored hue of the moths. Curled up inside the flowers, I almost overlooked them – they were well hidden from potential predators.
