Beautiful promethea moth I managed to untangle some cobwebs from last night :) she stuck around where I put her for a while to rest and recover, and was sent on her way just now! At first I mistook her for a cecropia, but after a little more digging (and the help of some sunlight) I found that she more closely resembles a promethea :D I love her and I hope she enjoys the rest of her little buggy life <3

A Hummingbird Clearwing moth is a rare and amazing insect to see.
Not only is it just about as big as a hummingbird and behaves in much the same manner - floating in the air as they do, but if you look closely, its wings are indeed, clear.
Amazingly, even in flight you can see right through them.
Watching one is mesmerizing.

   A drawing that I no longer exhibit in art shows, because too many people asked me if it was real, and more than one confidently called it a chipmunk. So. This is a flying squirrel that I drew with moth wings because I thought it was funny. Also, moth wings look good on absolutely everyone. Think of is as a squirrel fairy. A fairydiddle. A flying HAR HAR *wink* squirrel. It was funny in my head.

Looking back at the best moth species that visited this year and...
🚨 Flying kitten alert 🦋🐈💖
This is moth is called the nut-tree tussock. Clearly it should have been called the flying kitten. Please tell a friend who likes cats but not moths; moths are fluffy tiny flying kittens. Thank you from the Moth Promotional Board ✨🦋✨
