These 2 colonies of ants comes out in spring and fall. They are at an almost constant war with the colony on the other side of the sidewalk.

Seeing this colony grow over the years has been something that I have really enjoyed. I know most people dont like ants especially when they get into their homes. However I sure do love them

Madagascar Comet or Saturnia madagascarensis (Argema mittrei) - This representative of the peacock-eye family can be seen in nature only on the African island after which it is named. The butterfly is also called "Saturnia comet", "comet butterfly", "Madagascar moon butterfly", "peacock-eye comet", "Madagascar comet".
The Madagascar Saturnia has a bright yellow color, on each of the wings there are brown circles with black dots in the middle. The tops of the wings are decorated with dark brown spots. A thin reddish-brown wavy pattern runs along the wings. Saturnia comet got its unusual name due to its original appearance: on the hind wings it has red growths resembling the trail of a flying comet, they help it balance during flight.
The Madagascar Saturnia is a giant butterfly, its wingspan is 14-18 cm. The abdomen is large, barrel-shaped. The male has feathery and large antennae. Males and females of this species of tropical butterflies differ. The female of the Madagascar Saturnia is larger, it has wider and rounder wings, and the outgrowths on the hind wings are slightly shorter - 8 cm, while in males they reach a length of 13 cm.
The Saturnia-cometa does not have a developed mouth apparatus, so it does not feed on anything. The butterfly uses up food reserves collected by it back when the butterfly was at the larval stage. Saturnia cometa are active at night. They can be found in the evening or early morning. During the day, the insects sit in one place. The caterpillars of the Saturnia-cometa also have an unusual appearance: the body of the larva is covered with green scales. Caterpillars feed on tropical plants: uapaca, smoke tree, marula, etc. The larval stage is long: it can last up to two months. They pupate in snow-white porous cocoons. After the pupa stage, an adult butterfly appears. You can not enjoy its magnificent appearance for long, because the Saturnia-cometa lives only 4-5 days. The goal of the imago is to leave offspring. In Madagascar, these magnificent butterflies are successfully bred on special farms.
