Day One Hundred Eighty One 2013

IMG_0150
This moth has beautiful markings and a two-inch wing span. It was attached to my front porch post all day and never moved. Until I poked it with a pencil just to see if it was alive. It flew right at me and made me jump back like a sissy girl.

I can’t believe it let me get in its face to get a close up. I never knew they have googley eyes. [I can’t believe this is how I amused myself this afternoon ~ hope y’all found better ways to amuse yourselves today]

Day Two Hundred Forty Three

Pollen Party


This moth and a dozen others like him, plus several bees and other insect critters, were having a pollen party this afternoon on these pink flowers in the backyard. They must have been celebrating the deep blue sky and Fallish temperatures.
