My current crop of Saturniids: A female luna, a male polyphemus, a male io, a pair of dubernardi, and a pair of promethea (not in any particular order). Saturniidae is my favorite Family of moths. All are from caterpillars I reared, except the io....

Just so everyone knows, I don't have time to look these little critters up, and besides, I'm taking my time stroking your egos (because you have this info floating around in your heads). So, if you can ID these little red bugs, I'd greatly appreciate...

These were the cutest critters I’d ever seen. Two short-eared owl babies and their mommy lounging on my gazebo. Not the best pics I’m afraid as I didn’t want to get too close and had to really zoom in.

What on earth are you doing, Shadow? No he’s not feeding. He has just molted not long ago and it took several days to “fill up” (when they come out of the old skin the legs are like noodles and it takes time to fill up and regain strength; I ...

I admit that while I have an affinity for the less popular members of the animal kingdom, probably more so because I don't have a tolerance for fear based on ignorance, I have my limits. This is where I draw the line. If anybody can give me a good ...

I apologize for the quality of these. This moth was so large (4 in. long or so)I mistook it for a sparrow at first. Despite its size it blended remarkably well with the pavement. I had to toggle the colour balance to get it visible in the pics.

Newly hatched Polyphemus moth caterpillars. I raise these guys every year, but this group is heterozygous for melanism. If I can keep this line going, I should have some melanistic adults in 2020. Top pic is the melanistic form and one from the ...

Newly hatched Citheronia regalis larvae: baby hickory horned devils. In 4-6 weeks these tiny babies will be almost 7" long. (L) (Late instar larvae for a little perspective.)

A monster snapping turtle that's living in the canal on my way home from work. This pic doesn't give a good feel for size but I'll bet this critter is about 30lbs!

This is a very pretty little moth called The Hebrew (Polygrammate hebraeicum). I like the markings on this one because it looks like a smiley face.

Part of the fun of being owned by reptiles. Shedding issues. This is Riddick, who is actually a girl but was adopted out to us as a boy. She is a anerythristic corn snake, meaning she lacks any red pigment. The rescue didn’t know how to care for ...
