I've been struggling with my energy level lately. There are never enough spoons. But block carving is something that I find I can often do even when my energy is low.

Moth selfie accidentally becomes "Land of the Giants" promo. Or, maybe, I outgrew and captured Mothra? This photo is at least a week old. But, I'm back in the shop tonight.

8/23/23 - Open 6-9p, or thereabouts. No open containers, please.

We've had quite a wild day so far at @smithlibrary! This morning, this beautiful and very wiggly garden snake had to be extracted from our tech services office. And this afternoon, we wound up rescuing this giant caterpillar from the book drop drive-thru! (We think he is going to be a polyphemus moth one day 🐛) Anyway, animal rescue is not something that they teach you in library school, but we're happy to help regardless.

Last Night went out into the garden at night, couldn't help but pick off some critters and admire others. My #polyphemusmoth flew away. Yet my garden cats were here and having a ball jumping around the garden #nightwalk #nightgarden Anyone have solar lights in their garden space just for lighting the area a little nothing crazy? https://www.instagram.com/p/CBlk3IYAkwt/?igshid=1qi8egy8ec094

This morning we woke up to an amazing surprise! 6 months ago, late last August, I found a caterpillar on our walk home from school. Luca and Ezra were enamored immediately. Luca naked him Calapillary. When we got him home that night, Calapillary made himself a cocoon. Luca was very excited by the idea that we would get to see him hatch into a moth. I looked him up, and discovered that Calapillary was a Polyphemus moth and that he was supposed to become a moth much earlier in the summer. We weren’t sure if he would hatch, but we waited and waited and nothing happened. After about a month we’d given up hope and so this cocoon just became part of the decor of Luca and Ezra’s bedroom. . This morning, Eva and I were talking in the kitchen when suddenly she let out a yelp of excitement. At first I thought maybe Ezra had gotten into something dangerous. She just pointed into their bedroom, speechless. That’s when I noticed there was an unfamiliar shape in the bug container. It was Calapillary! He had finally hatched into a moth! I have no idea what made him hatch now. It’s still very cold outside, but I guess the conditions were just right in their bedroom. Maybe the white noise machine making cricket sounds all last night helped? Who knows? Either way the kids were very excited to meet the new Calapillary, who Luca has renamed Mothy. He doesn’t have any moth-parts, so he’ll only live about a week. Since it’s still so cold outside, I guess he’ll be spending that week in the butterfly tent. I still can’t believe he was actually still alive in that cocoon all those months. It’s truly been an amazing morning. #wolfgangjalapeño #ziggystarfruit #caterpillar #cocoon #moth #polyphemusmoth #amazingnature #amazingstory #truestory (at Briarwood, Queens) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9MZQx_pZOD/?igshid=1vr13fmykmnks

Yesterday I had this mysterious beautiful studio visitor that spent all day here on my sign, nestled up the the bird magnet made by @barnfunk. I think he is a male polyphemus moth (giant silk moth)... but please chime in if you know! He had a wingspan of 6 inches! I was hoping he might stay a few days but this morning he was gone. What a beautiful creature he was - and that’s coming from someone who’s normally grossed out by small moths 😂🦋🐛 #polyphemusmoth #giantsilkmoth #methowvalley #twispwa #twisp (at Twispworks) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx8KT7jAHh-/?igshid=q6ev9yxll5it

Look what I found next to my door. So #beautiful and #fragile. Wow! The name of this moth is #PolyphemusMoth or #AntheraeaPolyphemus / #CramerMoth. This miraculous creature is gone but its #gorgeous body was such a nice gift from nature. #Thankful 🙏🏻❤️🌿 . . . The Polyphemus Moth, Antheraea Polyphemus (Cramer), is one of our largest and most beautiful #silkmoths. It is named after #Polyphemus, the giant cyclops from #GreekMythology who had a single large, round, eye in the middle of his forehead. The name is because of the large eyespots in the middle of the hind wings. . . . #moth #silkmoth #butterfly #mothwing #mothwings #butterflywing #butterflywings #mothsofusa #mothsofnewjersey #usanature #newjerseynature #newjersey #nj #usa #natureisamazing #wow #thatsbae #thatsdarling
