It’s always a good day at work when you go to visit one of your coworkers and he plops a big cecropia moth into your hands out of the blue:

That isn’t a particularly great photo, but what spectacular creatures! I love working at a place where these sorts of things are relatively common occurrences. I work with a whole horde of nature nerds – and I love every minute of it!

Wow! Stunning!
Thanks!
How gorgeous! Luna moths are my favorite. My grandma was a high school science teacher and every few years, somebody would bring her a batch of caterpillars.
Luna moths are lovely too! I adore the silk moths. They’re so huge and wonderful.
“Nature Nerds”….love that!

It’s really beautiful, when I was a biology graduate student I had contact with all these tiny beauties, some of them tiny but not beauty.
Glad to hear it!
