Monarch (Danaus plexippus) One side has been descaled, a process in which I have carefully removed the scales to reveal the delicate membrane of its wing.
The Luna Moth has no mouth and does not eat or drink. Only living for one week as an adult, their only purpose is to mate and produce the next generation. There has been concern that light pollution from man-made sources, like street lights, may deter silk moths from mating. Luna moths, once very common, are now being threatened in some areas due to habitat loss. . A week might seem like a very short time for us. But, it is a lifetime for these moths. They put all of their energy into transforming from a caterpillar to a moth, flying to find a mate and then producing the next generation! They live a very productive and prosperous adult life. .

The genus Caligo, commonly called owl butterflies, are known for their owl-like eye spots and feathery appearance. They are found in the rainforest and secondary forests of Mexico, Central and South America. . They are very large and only fly a few meters at a time, preferring to fly at dusk. The butterflies rest for long periods on tree trunks and can be difficult to spot, but if disturbed they take immediate flight and if seen from below with their wings fully open they could easily be mistaken for an owl. .
