Such is a life of importance! 😁😰
We ❤️ Moths — they taste like chicken!
Just kidding... But it is moth week, and we have to appreciate these tasty critters who keep our bats healthy!

Precicely! Thanks for bringing light to these overlooked and broadly undiscovered wonders!
Sometimes micro-moths like this Callima (likely) argenticinctella are absolutely stunning little animals. People often walk right past thinking they're just tiny moths, but under magnification you realize you've missed out on something truly beautiful. #entomology #bugsky #Invert 🌿

In honor of #NationalMothWeek I will be posting #moths. We start with the amazingly beautiful Hieroglyphic Moth, Diphtera festiva, which I have only seen once.

It’s Moth Face Friday!
This is a Spilosoma, but it’s hard to say which species it could be. What’s not hard to say is how cute it is.

Moth Face Friday!
This Zale moth showed up to my porch light over the last week. I also held the first public moth night of the year this week and found quite a few photogenic individuals, so I’m excited to share those soon.
