I saw several deer today and this guy (roughed grouse) in full strut. Sorry about the picture quality all I had to photograph him was my phone and I couldn't get very close. The second shot is the best view I got of his fanned tail after he moved ...

Nice weather means more time for insect hunting! My first Acronicta funeralis, Funerary dagger moth, showed up last night. I rarely take insects but I kept this one hoping to collect some eggs. Their larvae, called paddle caterpillars, are some of...

Got lucky with this one.. I was picking up some equipment and walked over to the edge of the drive. I started hearing a hissing sound. Being that I was around a bunch of pipelines, I thought maybe a pipe was leaking. Took me a second to realize that...

My first instar Hemileuca maia (buck moth) caterpillars are doing well on white oak. As soon as I sew some new sleeves I'll move these babies outdoors onto live branches.

A big, beautiful, Promethea moth (Callosamia promethea) that showed up at my blacklights, tonight. She's full of eggs! I've got her in a cage overnight so I can collect some eggs before releasing her.
