#MothOfTheDay is a real autumn regular in the Southeast UK. Again, a continental immigrant and not yet a suspected colonist. I had 6 of these visitors last night. The ethereal...

Larvae feed on Jasmine and Olive.

#MothOfTheDay is
POPLAR KITTEN (left and top right)
Fircula bifida
Similar to Sallow Kitten (bottom right). Differences - Poplar Kitten much larger (1.5 x size), less bold contrasting features & central dark band has straighter, smoother outer edge. Sallow band edge more scalloped.

Guten Morgen und einen relaxten Samstag! 😀 👋
Zum #Insektensamstag heute ein Hochalpen-Widderchen (Zygaena exulans). Der tagaktive Nachtfalter kommt in alpinen Regionen oberhalb der Baumgrenze vor, hier auf ca. 3.000 Höhenmetern im schweizerischen Wallis.

#MothOfTheDay - if Mothman did adult movies, this would surely be my name ...
DUSKY THORN
Ennomos fuscantaria
For me, this autumnal leaf mimic is the first real sign of the beginning of the end of #summer. Larval foodplant is ash.

I never actually posted the full version of this one! I've only colored two of my stained glass moths so far, but I'm very pleased with how this one turned out.

#MothOfTheDay is a bit of a controversial one. Larvae can strip oak trees and cause terrible skin / breathing problems if handled. Yet the moth itself (completely non-toxic) is quite neat and pretty.
OAK PROCESSIONARY
Thaumetopoea processionea
As always, recorded for official use.

A couple weeks ago I was camping in west-central Michigan when one from our group discovered this amazing visitor, an Imperial Month!

-
got washed and dressed this morning, ready for my delivery. The temperature is cooler than yesterday so my bathroom was easier to air out
-
brought my grocery delivery in and I now have healthy fresh food again 🥑

a phone call from a friend, which doubled up as free entertainment since they had a lot of drama to report. I did my best to be a good listener

I’m going to jump on the #Odyssey bandwagon (even though I might never see the movie…)
This handsome moth is called “Antheraea polyphemus” and is named for Polyphemus, the Cyclops from Homer’s Odyssey. It’s all about the eyes!
(My son took the photo yesterday outside of his workplace in central Iowa.)
#MothOfTheDay is one of the 'kitten' moths. I prefer the slightly bolder-looking Alder Kitten, but this is the next best ...
SALLOW KITTEN
Furcula furcula
As its name suggests, the larvae feed on sallows, as well as poplars.
