I was recently extremely blessed in being able to finally see one of my “bucket list bugs” as I’ve started calling them. (Not a real list, as I’m never one to be organized…)
But a friend alerted me to the presence of this big beauty and J gave me a leg up to take a closer photo with my measly phone camera and subpar photography skills. I found some eggs she had laid on the wall and I scooped them up in hopes I can look after them. She hung around with her admirers for a good half hour before deciding she’d lingered long enough and flew off into the literal sunset.
Cecropia moth, Hyalophora cecropia, largest moth species in North America. Bug haters, don’t interact!
My roommate's class pet is getting up there in age and she's thinking she might be passing soon so my roommate is taking her everywhere with her so she won't be alone when she goes
antler moths!! They get their name form the beautiful white pattern on their hindwings which looks like, you guessed it, antlers!
Somewhat unrelated but is it just me that ADORES brown/reddish brown + white colour scheme stuff, especially these kinds of bone/yellowish white tints <3
And as alwas with moths we get amazing antennae :)
Seeing how you two are gonna be asking Muffet for guidance on merch, are either of you afraid of spiders?
Angel goes digging in her pocket and produces her (lightly cracked) phone. After some scrolling, she holds it out to the camera, an enthused smile on her face.
(If you are sensitive to bugs, the images under the cut will be bugs so don't look.)
