A Luna moth arrived in my backyard about 5 days ago. It's stayed in the same spot on a wall. Took some photos this morning and will post them tomorrow. I've never seen one live, although I understand they are not rare.

They're pretty hard to find by me, i dunno why. I'm gonna try to raise some this year

some special ed teacher lady at my school caught a luna female and got her to lay eggs, but then left the container out in the rain

I told her she was about as smart as the kids she teaches and she got pretty mad at me :blush:

this is the wild male from the other day:

he looks related to the father of the disaster brood 2 years ago (they could be cousins, and the disaster was environmental not genetic)

 

[fleurdejoo]

So gorgeous!

 

[agent A]

ok so a few years ago I snapped these shots of a male luna from the magic wings stock

this is my current male from that stock

this is the female, from Katelyn mayos stock

I like mayo stock for the size and magic wings for the color

I hope they can pair up tonight
