I'm Warbling Vireo and I'm here to say.
I'm bobbing and weaving and coming your way.
I've staked out these tall trees with caterpillars galore.
Let's nest up for the summer, I'm looking to score.

Hi, I'm...uh, Common Gluphisia Moth. My friends call me Phil. You've probably seen me around the poplars, I'm pretty common. Sorry for the blurry photo, it's the only one I've got. So I stopped eating, and it would be great to meet someone soon

Hear ye, hear ye! It is I, Herald Moth, recently returned from my winter's sleep in yonder cave. The sight of your stately robes gives me goosebumps, as I warm myself in spring's embrace. Join me in procreating, as now is our time to frolic

Hey, over here, it's Common Whitetail Dragonfly. Check out this amazing waterfront property I'm leasing! (Scram boy, I saw her first.) I've been practicing my yoga moves, and would love to try out the wheel position with you. I'm here all week

Hey, it's American Robin. Just got back for the breeding season, and check out this amazing territory I've staked out! Come on by, I'll give you a tour and show off some new courtship moves I've picked up over winter. Who knows, maybe this is our summer?

Wassup, it's Elm Borer here. Just popped out from under the bark, and looking forward to repro month! (For the Elm lovers out there, we only target the sick trees, so hate the game, not the players.) I hope to see you at the Elm party tonight!

Hi, I'm Horned Spanworm Moth. Let me guess, you're thinking "Where are your horns?" Funny. True, I had some sweet filaments back in my youth, but I've left those behind. Now I'm just looking to settle down and reproduce before winter. Any takers?

M'lady, it is I, White-breasted Nuthatch. I seek the lasting comfort of a wife and mother with whom to spend the rest of my days. Your alabaster breast and nasal call send my feathers aflutter. I wish nothing more than to feed you as you tend to our nest

Bring out your dead, it's Common Green Bottle Fly! (JK...well, sorta) Looking for the mesmerizing flash patterns of a fertile female fluttering her wings in the sun. I'm a lean, green, foot-tapping machine looking for love. I'll be by the roadkill

Hi, um, I'm Virgin Tiger Moth. I'm new to this, sorry. I sent out some pheromones, I hope they're ok. Oh! Was that an ultrasonic response? Nice, well, here's a click back at you. What, show me some hind wing? Oh, ok. Hmm, you smell toxic. Rawr!

Check me out, I'm Peacock Fly! Do you like my wings? I like your wings. Let's dance! Do you think my wings look like a jumping spider? I'm not sure either. Want to head over to those dead hardwoods and lay some eggs?

Hi, I'm Redpoll. I used to be called Common, but we settled our differences with the Hoaries and the Lessers. I'm a serial monogamist looking for a breeding season hook up. Sing me a song, show me how you can fly and let's have an Arctic summer fling

Hey, I'm White-banded Toothed Carpet. They call me Common in Europe, but I go by Toothed here in NA in homage to my wing fang tattoos. I just crawled out from under the bedstraw and am looking for a good time. Find me at the bright lights tonight

Psst...it's Maple Spanworm Moth...shhh. I'm in disguise. I used to have that great twig costume, but I outgrew it. Check out my dead leaf get up though. Pretty cool, right? Anyway, how about we mate before winter comes? I'll be in hiding at the hardwoods

Hello, I'm Hermit Thrush. I'm back for the breeding season and looking for a man who knows how to sing for his territory! I like to be chased in circles a bit, but at heart I am an introvert who just wants to cozy up on my clutch on the forest floor

Hi there, I'm Northern Azure! Spring has sprung, and I can finally spread my wings as a butterfly! (Being tended by ants as a caterpillar is cool and all, but this feels good) I've only got a day or so left, so let's hook up! Find me at the Black Cherry

Hey hey, it's Spotted Cucumber Beetle. I'm no ladybug, but I am a lady and you know what we like. You better practice your antennal stroking, cause no stroke means no poke (if you know, you know). I don't take just any nuptial gift, so bring your A game

Hi, um...I'm Grape Leaffolder Moth. What can I say about myself? Let's see...I'm a day flyer. I like leaf origami. I'm a big fan of a few different leaves, especially grape, red bud and evening primrose, they fold real nice. Um...well, that's me I guess!
