Update: the Giant Bingus is definitely our mystery large herbivore.  We know this because we saw one gnaw branches off a broccotree and then take a dump.
Also Update: the gigaducks definitely have eggs now.  They seem to be taking turns sitting on them and there are guards posted to keep us (and everything else) getting anywhere near their nests in the lander.  Not that we're getting close to the river anyway, what with all the megafauna around.  We saw a tarasque take the leg off a triceracow.  Just crunched it right off like a carrot stick.  The cow managed to flee on its three remaining limbs but ended up lying down and bleeding to death, so at least we got some steaks.  Reynolds, who is from Florida, has speculated that tarasques might be like large crocodiles and alligators, which can go for months without food.
Tumblr media
Update the Third: One of Kibwana's pet poison puff caterpillars died but the other one has pupated and emerged as a butterfly that looks very boring and brown with its wings folded but shows black and white stripes with them open - like the pink, we figure this is a Don't Eat Me I'm Toxic sign.  He released it and it flew away to do butterfly stuff.  Godspeed, little dude!

#1971 - Caligo uranus - Gold-edged Owl-Butterfly
Tumblr media Tumblr media
First photo by @purrdence​ , the second off Reddit
The owl butterflies are very large Nymphalids native to the rainforests and secondary forests of Central and South America, and known for their huge eyespots. They certainly have a resemblance to owl eyes, but the butterflies are most active around dusk and ‘caligo’ is Latin for darkness.
It’s also not sure exactly why eyespots deter predators - experiments suggest that any contrasting pattern will work, and in other butterflies the eyespots redirect attacks to the wings rather than to the actual body.
Foodplants for owl butterflies are diverse, but include bananas and heliconias.
In some species of Caligo, the males gather to compete in courtship displays.

I heard you were talking about foxes! I love foxes! But you know what I love more?
Moths and Butterflies!!
Here are some cool moths and butterflies to look up and look at.
(All of the info is from wikipedia)
MOTHS
The luna moth - The luna moth, also called the American moon moth, is a Nearctic moth in the family Saturniidae, subfamily Saturniinae, a group commonly named the giant silk moths. The moth has lime-green wings and a white body. Its caterpillars are also green
The diva moth- the Diva Hemerophila moth, is a moth in the family Choreutidae. It was described by Riley in 1889. It is found in Florida and Cuba. With brightly colored wings, clubbed antennae, and a day flying disposition, Diva Moths are often mistaken for butterflies.
The Hummingbird Hawk Moth- The hummingbird hawk-moth is a species of hawk moth found across temperate regions of Eurasia. The species is named for its similarity to hummingbirds, as they feed on the nectar of tube-shaped flowers using their long proboscis while hovering in the air; this resemblance is an example of convergent evolution.
BUTTERFLIES
The Peacock Pansy- Junonia almana, the peacock pansy, is a species of nymphalid butterfly found in Cambodia and South Asia. It exists in two distinct adult forms, which differ chiefly in the patterns on the underside of the wings; the dry-season form has few markings, while the wet-season form has additional eyespots and lines.
The Emerald Swallowtail.- Papilio palinurus, the emerald swallowtail, emerald peacock, or green-banded peacock, is a butterfly of the genus Papilio of the family Papilionidae. It is native to Southeast Asia, but is regularly kept in butterfly houses around the world
Thats all I’m going to give you for now but if you’d like more please let me know!
-Misty Anon
I enjoyed your input ! 🦋
From reading, I would say the lunar moth & the emerald swallowtail are my favourites!
Hit me up with such facts anytime you feel like it!
I may not be a fan of insects, but I like observing them. Something about the humming of bees & the elegant flying of butterflies intrigues me...

Naked and stuffed, gathered against each other, Isabella and Joel had cultivated their romantic sessions in his bedroom, but as captivated and consumed they were of each other, they resumed their caressing sessions, their lips sore in relations to the passionate petting they drove each other with.
“You make me moan so weird,” Isabella giggled while Joel had slipped his strong right arm under her back, pleased of the sex crazed condition he had her in.
“That means I’m doing my job,” he effortlessly teased just as he brought her naked figure closer to his competent chest.
Isabella openly snickered at his confident spirit fore he pulled the woman into one last kiss. “Does Jackson do anything for Christmas?” Isabella inquired the moment they were precisely finished with their tender affair; Joel had pulled himself off the bed and supplied Isabella with her clothes.
“Maria and Tommy usually hold a dinner party for Christmas,” Joel surely replied during the time he put on his attire, Isabella watched his once nude and divested body be capped and masked with fabric.
“Well, that’s exciting,” Isabella admittedly replied, “I cannot wait to start looking for presents for my children.”
Optimistic about her cheerfulness, Joel alerted to gaze at the woman who finished dressing up in her clothing. “Well, one of these days we should leave Jackson and look for presents,” he hospitably suggested, merry and assured of Joel’s proposal, Isabella defined firm to his suggestion.
Tumblr media
Greeted by Venus and Robin during the moment she enrolled into her lodge, she closed the door behind her, she pondered to her children of the whereabouts of Ivy and was informed that she was with Ellie and the matriarch had hoped and contemplated of inviting Ellie to dinner one day.
Wordlessly, Isabella had reminded herself that she was yet to inform Venus that she has been taken out of her piano lessons.
“Venus,” she called, the young girl twisted to look at her, inquisitive to what her mother had to say, “a couple of days ago, I had a conversation with Kaylee and now you’ve been taken out of your piano lessons—”
“What?! Why?!” Venus audibly exclaimed confused and dismayed by the objectless information that was passed onto her.
“I’m only doing it for your protection,” Isabella competently contested, “the Lorde family are weird and I don’t want them near you.”
Without a doubt, defeated, Venus hunched and inclined her shoulders in dismay. “Well, where am I going to practice now?” Venus had thought her mother to be right, she could not dispute about the odd qualities the Lorde twins shared.
“How about the school’s piano?” Robin helpfully suggested in attempt to bring her hopes up.
Nevertheless, Venus didn’t seem too happy about his attempt, hushed and reticent, Venus turned her the front of her physique away from the two kin and abruptly hurried to her room so she could sulk solely alone. Convicted and damned, Isabella placed her hand on her hip, remorseful for what she has done. Robin shortly examined his mother’s face and observed the apologetic facial appearance and stepped closer to her with an understanding stance, “I know you did it for her own good.”
“I know but playing the piano was what made Venus happy and I took it from her,” Isabella regretfully pouted, abruptly, Isabella had wished she didn’t become intimate with Adam on account of the dispute between Kaylee and her wouldn’t have happened and Isabella wouldn’t have had to take her youngest out of her passion.
Found at fault, Isabella chased after her daughter in hopes to make her feel better.
Tumblr media
“There’s going to be people who will pass by that will also be open to exchange stuff today,” Ellie conveyed with conviction to Ivy who prepared herself for the day.
“I don’t have anything interesting or good enough to exchange right now,” Ivy candidly replied as they inclined themselves to leave Ivy’s lodge.
“Well, I can get something for you,” Ellie attentively suggested as she closed the cabin door behind her.
Ivy turned to look at Ellie with a jocular and witty heartfelt look. “You would do that for me?” She comedically gasped during the moment she pressed her hand against her chest, Ellie lightly scoffed at her playful spirit.
“There’s also new comers moving in, some of the people moving in are our age.”
“Well, I hope we can become friends with them,” Ivy kindly suggested as the distinct physique of Isabella and Joel came into view, Isabella in high spirits to see the two girls, Ivy neared to her mother with Ellie beside her, aloof in the presence of Joel who awkwardly gestured his head towards her as a sign of greeting.
“Ellie, I’m so glad to see you,” Isabella mirthfully greeted, “I want to invite you to dinner,”
Ellie opened her mouth dubious of the invitation, she briskly looked at Ivy who had a pleasant and fervent smile on her face, hopeful for Ellie to come, the auburn-haired girl then looked at Joel who had a small glower, “I’ll be busy today, so you won’t have to worry,” Joel said with a sullen attitude.
Significantly upset about the one-sided exchange Joel and Ellie shared, Isabella kept her churlish thought to herself as she didn’t know of the root of their dull dispute. Ivy and Ellie left the two adults to themselves. Isabella could identify that Joel was still blue and spilled due to his interaction, as Isabella was ignorant of his status and position, all she could do was put a hand on his shoulder and comfort him.
“So, you’re Isabella?”
The Rosalind woman fitted around to view the possessor of the voice, during her alter, Isabella had quite slightly identified the voice, but the profile was far back in her mind, yet, it was the distinct curly air that framed her face and the way she smiled that reminded Isabella of who she was.
“Mariposa?”
Mariposa was just as stunned as Isabella, both women shocked that they would come into contact once again in such a dismal era of time. Isabella was in truth glad to see Mariposa stand before her, she had much to thank Mariposa as without her, Isabella wouldn’t have realised her romantic bond with Alexander was wrong in numerous of ways.
“Are you still with that dickwad Alexander?”
Mariposa must’ve not gotten the news that Alexander had been deceased for a sustained moment, still dazed of Mariposa’s appearance, Isabella hesitated but compelled herself to have the confidence to speak. “No,” she shortly replied astounded how word of Alexander’s death didn’t go back to her after all these years, besides from her stupefied reaction, the woman had recognised the relieved expression Mariposa has expressed once she heard that Isabella wasn’t with Alexander anymore.
“How do you two know each other?”
Joel had noticed the two women were taken by surprise by each other’s arrival and had wondered about the base of their bond hence he had barely known anything about Isabella, he had thought this period was a good time to slowly get to know his lover more.
“Our first interaction was so crazy, I wanted to make moves on Isabella at a party because I hated her boyfriend during the time, just to find out that the girl was seventeen---”
Isabella apprehensively giggled in hopes to change the subject, not ready for Joel to be familiar with her root. “It’s been such a long time Mariposa.”
“Aside from a specific drastic change,” Mariposa presently said, implied about her first and last name change she hoped she would hear the background about, “you barely look different, barely aged, you need to tell me all your secrets.”
“She’s also managed to woo the entire town,” Joel lightly joked which caused Isabella to laugh, timid and flattered by his statement. The three adults uninterrupted, continued to joke around with each other as Mariposa had thrown around hints about their past Isabella shortly avoided, aside from the awkward moments, the three were able to enjoy each other’s presence till Mariposa had to leave and continue travelling by the town, left the pair to dwell and lodge in their former and precedent conversation.
Tumblr media
It hadn’t been long since it started to rain in Jackson, Robin had found the light tapping sound relaxing as he etched his pencil on the private piece he had been working on. Nevertheless, shortly, he had been interrupted by a loud handful of knocks against his door, as he hid his piece, he urgently answered the door to find Scarlett, drenched by the rain, with no coat to cover her, her curly hair stuck against her skin and her wet clothes being damp and adhesive onto her body.
She had been crying, it was evident with how red her face looked, along with how swelled she seemed. “I’m sorry if I’m annoying you,” she quickly apologised.
Empathetic and compassionate to her state, Robin had attempted to reassure her only to trigger her into a state of panic, quick to move, Robin had pulled Scarlett into his lodge within a great hug, benevolent and charitable, he allowed Scarlett to cry into his hoody, carefree and inattentive about her tears that doused his upper outfit.
Howbeit, she had allowed the boy to close the door to his cabin, and he had endorsed the blonde girl to speak about her situation the moment the duo had sat down on his bed. Nervous and uneasy, Scarlett had played with the ends of her shirt, volatile and anxious of her current situation.
“My mother’s always been so violent, but today was just worse than usual,” Scarlett uneasily explained, told and interpreted the vicious and enraged episodes her mother would usually have. All the brutal and mad words she would throw at Scarlett and decimate and defile her confidence, Scarlett didn’t understand why she had brought such a negative trait out of her mother, the last time she remembered, Scarlett hadn’t done anything dreadful to her mother, but she always treated Scarlett as if she were her worst enemy.
No matter how much Scarlett would apologise for God knows what she has done to her mother, it would never work on her side.
“Would you like to stay for the night?”
Unsure to Robin’s compassionate suggestion, Scarlett had remained silent, but keen and eager to have Scarlett stay under a safe roof, Robin had pulled a warm and encouraging smile to make Scarlett confident to his approach. “My mum’s making dinner and I would like it if you came.”
Convinced and sanguine on his request, Scarlett had timidly smiled, opened to the dinner invitation. “Of course.”
Tumblr media
“If I were stupid, I would have not realised that Mariposa was flirting with you,” Joel and Isabella had moved to the closest bar the moment it had started to pour, the essence and basis of the bar was comfortable and it was barely packed hence people decided to move back into their homes the second they felt rain.
Isabella had smirked at Joel’s keen account which had prompt her teasing mode, “do you have a problem with it?”
Surprised by her question, Joel stood back at her, muddled, “why wouldn’t I?” He had asked, flustered.
“It would make sense if I were your lady, but I’m not, so anyone can come and take me as theirs.”
Evidently, against the idea, Joel knitted his eyebrows, nonplussed and gone. “Well, I wouldn’t allow that to happen because I will take you on a date to claim you as mine next Monday.”
Isabella laughed, entertained by his serious demeanour. “Well, if the date is good enough then maybe I’ll allow myself to be yours.”
“There’s been numerous of times where you had allowed yourself to be mine,” Joel sneakily joked.
“Oh?” Isabella innocently questioned, “like when?” She gingerly tilted her head.
In a faux thinking mode, Joel positioned himself. “Hm, let me think, on your bed, on my bed, on my couch---”
“Izzy!” An apparent and definite voice rang through both of their ears, the voice had interrupted their coarse and obscene conversation, there entered Tora, with that permanent simper he would have on his face that always used to annoy Isabella, his eyes traced over the woman ere it etched over the man who stood confused next to Isabella, “and you must be Joel.”

Trying out a new style, inspired by incredible @sunjun78 photography that renders like Chinese paintings.
I color-corrected in Photoshop, and penciled the outline using Wacom pen. It took a while, and I am still missing tons of details.  This kind of meticulous style requires many hours of brush strokes.  I have so much respect for Gongbi art craftsmanship.
The painting of the crane next to Nelly, is actually generated by Midjourney AI.  I was going to extract the crane and use it as a background, but I like it so much that I render the AI art as is, instead.  The AI even generated its own cryptic signature stamp. I have no idea what it says, but impressive.
The red stamp at the bottom right, is actually my name in old Chinese characters.
Coming soon - Before & after for this photo creation :)
