rachunter Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Been seeing some real cool moths the last few weeks. The camo one is a pandora Sphinx. The pink one is a rosy maple. I don’t know why but there always on the screens of my house. I’m also seeing a lot of snakes this year one was grayish with an orange dot behind its head a fast as all heck. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you mention it, I've noticed quite a few more snakes in the yard than prior years. Cut the grass last night and was dodging three different ones with the mower (garters and brown snakes). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Anyone know what he’ll be ? Or would have turned into as now he’s sparrow crap soon. Went in to pay for gas and saw sparrow fly off and he’s gone. Oopsy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not had much luck finding interesting moths, but I've had some cool caterpillar finds. TF- I found one of those years ago and snapped a pic. I have it labeled as a "White-marked tussock moth". Not sure how accurate that ID is but I guess I'll go back and check it again now that the topic has come up. I've been known to mis-identify a few creatures from the past. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachunter Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 They seem to like this screen. I saw that plume moth(t shaped) fold up his wings. The oak moth was there a few days later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
