So, Mandy ( she's family now, so she has a name) built her web right outside our back door a good while ago. She has never freaked out over the comings and goings through that door. In fact, she felt so comfortable that she made an egg sac. This ...

Today I moved some old rotted short logs that stood on end, and found many of these enormous grubs, about the size of thumb. I suspect them to be some stage in the life of the large death's head (delta-shape) moths we get here but I don't really ...

I'll probably be posting quite a bit, as I discover new critters everyday! I found this Antheraea polyphemus (polyphemus moth) in sad shape. I don't know much about their lifespan, but it seemed to be nearing the end of it. Still, it's beautiful!

These Scathophaga stercoraria (yellow or golden dung flies) were attracted by some fragrant poorly composted chicken manure one day (many years ago, now) as I turned my compost heap. Scathophaga translates roughly as dung-eater. It turns out that...

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.
