These are the gorgeous caterpillars of a rather plain brown moth called the Turbulent Phosphila. They live naturally in Pennsylvania and they feed on a thorny vine called Greenbrier.

I stopped by some of my favorite amphibian haunts today, hoping to hear early peepers (temps were in the low 70s today!!). No luck finding adult frogs, but I netted some greenfrog tadpoles. I released them after getting some pics. It won't be long ...

A spotted salamander, a Jefferson's salamander and an Eastern newt, just 3 of the 41 salamanders I found last night while surveying some vernal pools. Final tally was: 1 spotted, 2 Eastern newts, and 38 Jefferson's. It is still early in the season,...

Where have all the frogs gone? Gone to grenouille, every one. I tried to bring a few to my fish pond. Twenty years ago I could find them stuck in old pools. That was in New Jersey. I'm back in Minnesota now, what's the prognosis?

It's a bittersweet night, road-cruising migrating amphibians. Unfortunately, LOTS of casualties. But those that I have been able to help across the road have all been big, beautiful, females. Pics when I get home. So far, spotted salamanders, ...

Not much to look at, but always a welcome sight. This little guy is a winter stonefly. Sometimes they show up as early as January, so this year they seem a little late. But they always bring me hope that spring isn't far off!

This hopper allowed me to stroke him repeatedly - after which I couldn't exile him from my deck plants, let alone toy with the idea of munching those for their high protein source any more. but hey, I'm a snowflaky vegetarian anyway!

It's been years since I lived with Boxelder bugs. The two I've found this week didn't recover from the freeze.

This is "Bela", a common Chilean rose tarantula (G. rosea). A gift from my son's mother, more than making up for a well-earned rep as a notoriously bad gift-giver. Not sure how old she was when she came to live with us in 1994; my best guess is one ...

A lucky screen grab I caught from '14. One of my favorite images ever. That spider was on one of my milkweeds in a year I was rearing monarchs. I've video of this little wasp dragging it along the windowsill. :D

Spring is coming! The Zster snakes are back to eating weekly... The king snakes are waking up after a winter nap. I am always amazed by how much bigger they are for having been sleeping and not eating. Here's Siri ("Sirius Black"), my youngest ...

I heard scratchy, rustling noises today and realized that it's coming from my Actias dubernardi cocoons. They're wriggling and writhing with life. I can't wait until they emerge as huge, beautiful moths. They're due to eclose within the next 2 ...

It's a boy! This is my first Actias dubernardi adult. I'm so excited! He eclosed sometime early this morning--I found him when I came downstairs at 6am.
