#Death's-head hawkmoth

[bugthingsdaily]

Not quite a thing, but do you (or your followers) have any suggestions for bug-themed music? From title alone or as the subject of the song. I’m trying to build a playlist, these are my saved songs so far

And to justify sending this to the bug things blog, have a weird moth decoration I saw at a craft store while visiting with some family.

A BUG PLAYLIST IS PERFECT. ALSO CATERPILLARS OF THE COMMONWEALTH REFERENCE... HELLOOO. pleeease send me this playlist when its done or as its being made. and badass deaths-head hawkmoth

as for suggestions:

boys will be bugs - cavetown

leech boy - crywank

bug - alex g

honeybee - steam powered giraffe

moth's wings - passion pit

This listing is for Real Death Head Moth Black Skull from Vietnam. We use a real dried dead butterfly to make this handmade shadow box, and we store it carefully to preserve its shape and color in their original state.

Embroidery I did for my buddy, the fourth in the series of Godzilla kaiju patches! Like Anguirus and Kong, she's a mashup, combining Mothra with the features of a Death's-Head Hawkmoth.

Mother Nature has a twisted sense of humor, and we are included in her design.I have always been curious about the mimicry of insects ,some bordering in the macabre and the people who love to point out the details.If butterflies are unique daughters of the light,well,moths are daughters of the dark.Who doesn’t love butterflies? But moths are a breed apart,I can’t help noticing how moths are found in abandoned places,houses,and cemeteries,I wonder why that is,butterflies are silent damsels of a faerie world that exists in both worlds the seen and unseen.Moths are noisy and can raise the hairs on your back reminding you,that you aren’t welcome in places where ghosts abound and gather. Moths have the ability of vanishing at night without a trace .Leaving behind a trace of dust in their wake.A golden dust that old folks in the forest would collect to sprinkle on lovers. Sergig Guyman Proust.
