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 ...

Shelly had a romp out in the yard today. I always tie a balloon on the turts - they are quicker than you think!

Chilling on some Thread Leaf Coreopsis, this American Lady was so enraptured in nectar that he didn't notice me snapping away. This is my best shot before he flitted off

Another turtle who thought a warm patch of asphalt was a good place to relax. She didn't entirely appreciate being moved. She was headed towards a stream and judging by the dirt and mud that was plastered to her shell, I'd guess she just laid a ...

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 ...

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.

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!

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 ...

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.

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 ...
