  1. A Hummingbird Hawkmoths (genus Macroglossum) spotted at Springleaf Nature Park, Singapore on 14 Sept 2025. These fast flying moths are a challenge to shoot. But sometimes you get a lucky shot when they pause for more than a few seconds.

  5. Inchworm update, they've grown and now they look like this!

    I counted between 3-5 remaining caterpillars. The second photo is a tiny chrysalis on the bottom of a flower tube. It's so wee! What will come out?! WHEN will it come out?!

  9. A Hummingbird Clearwing, a day-flying moth, nectaring on Bee Balm. Common in the eastern United States, its habit of hovering at flowers leads it to often being mistaken for a hummingbird. Amazingly, this one stayed sort of still long enough for a couple of iPhone pictures.

  14. Learning to Look Closer #4

    Most people probably wouldn’t have stopped for her. She was just a little brown moth outside near the cat food. And with cats around, that probably wasn’t the safest place for her to be. So I picked her up. I expected her to fight me. To flutter her wings, scramble away, or do whatever tiny moths do when a giant human suddenly decides to scoop them up. She didn’t. She just let me. No fighting. No struggling. She sat completely still on the tip of my finger while I carried her […]

  19. Does anyone know what these two are? 🤔

    Edit: thanks to @hastingsmothman for letting me know they are Red Underwings. 👍🙂

    They are relaxing at the top of the wall in our porch. Nice and shady. Out of the hot, glaring sun. 💚

  24. #MothOfTheDay is the interestingly marked

    LYCHNIS
    Hadena bicruris

    There is a very similar moth called CAMPION (more pink & purple diffusion), but both feed on the seeds of campion plants. Lychnis is just an old term for a campion plant, but the moths differ.

  29. Out on my deck just now: a Tulip Tree Beauty Moth. This particular moth is two inches from wingtip to wingtip, and it would be perfectly camouflaged against a tulip tree trunk.
