Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
The tiger moth doesn’t roar, but it can squeak! Also known as garden tigers or woolly bears, this species wards off bats by emitting an ultrasonic click, which tells potential predators that they don’t taste good and jams their echolocation.

Will you be adding any sphinx/hawk moths? And what about orb weavers?
Definitely will have sphinx moths and orb weavers :] For moths I will try to make sure each of major families is adequately represented, though macromoths may have more representation than micromoths. Simply because a lot of the tiny thin micros will be hard to adequately pixelate I think.

Eight-Spotted Forester Moth (Alypia octomaculata) at my parents' farm. These day-flying Moths drink nectar from flowers and lay their eggs on Virginia Creeper and Grape plants, where their larvae feed. These Moths spend the Winter in their cocoons, hidden in wood crevices or soil. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #eightspottedforester #eightspottedforestermoth #mothstagram #dayflyingmoth #mothsarebeautiful #macromoth #lepidopteraofinstagram #norfolkwild #norfolkcountyontario #blognorfolk #invert_macro #insects_of_our_world #naturephotograph (at Norfolk County, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCEMZ7Dnobs/?igshid=chyiox850fhj

Buff-tip (Phalera bucephala). by Bob Eade A similar image to one I did last year. However, this one the eyes are showing, and they are lower in the head than I was expecting. I can't recall being able to see the eyes on any other shot I've taken of this species. The scales on the wings of this species are quite large and it is worth viewing larger to really see the scales. https://flic.kr/p/2kZV5Zm

The thorax fuzz on this moth reminds me of the plastic grass you get at the bottom of Easter baskets...

Merveille du jour (Griposia aprilina). by Bob Eade The beautiful Merveille du Jour moth. The first I have seen in Seaford and was a great start to the day. Having emptied the moth trap and found little of interest I found this guy nearby, obviously attracted to the garden by the trap light. The name translates to 'Wonder of the day' and certainly lived up to that name yesterday!! https://flic.kr/p/2jN5aXW
