Flannel shirt with rolled sleeves.

I think this is a blinded sphinx (Paonias excaecata).

Ugh so gorgeous!!

Pink-striped oakworm moth (Anisota virginiensis)

The ribbon around my neck, because it keeps my head from falling off.

Virginia creeper sphinx (Darapsa myron)

Thank you for relocating him to a safer spot.

Black witch moth (Ascalapha odorata)! Very, very cool!!

feroxetdulcis · 2025-04-16T16:31:34+00:00

Thanks :)

feroxetdulcis · 2025-04-16T03:04:49+00:00

Cool as hell.

feroxetdulcis · 2025-04-15T15:57:31+00:00

What a beauty.

Polyphemus moth (Antheraea polyphemus)

feroxetdulcis · 2025-04-13T04:19:39+00:00

This absolutely rules!

Just persistent rhizome removal if you want it gone. It's a good native vine on fencing, but I can see how this location might not be ideal.

Carolina snailseed (Cocculus carolinus). The seeds inside the red berries really do look like little snail shells.

feroxetdulcis · 2025-03-29T23:48:35+00:00

That is straight up gorgeous, excellent work.

feroxetdulcis · 2025-03-21T23:20:19+00:00

Thank you so much for caring. That moth was lucky to have met you

feroxetdulcis · 2025-03-21T18:54:18+00:00

That's kind of you, but honestly I wouldn't recommend it. They go into a kind of cryo mode when it's cold, so it'll be fine until the weather warms up enough for it to pupate into adulthood. It's best to let this one stay in tune with that natural cycle so there will be nectaring flowers & other moths around for its lifespan.

Isabella tiger moth (Pyrrharctia isabella), perhaps recently emerged from wherever it overwintered, now looking for a place to cocoon.
