I sleeved a bunch of Luna moth (Actias luna) eggs on black walnut a couple of weeks ago. They've grown enough that today I needed to move the sleeve to a new branch. I've raised Lunas for years but I'm always amazed at how quickly these caterpillars develop. All of my other larvae are still tiny.

Posted by InsectraA cute grey treefrog (Hyla versicolor) that I found in my birch tree, this afternoon. His camouflage was great and I only discovered him when I heard him calling.
