A STOP SCARING ME!! I still have one summer before i take it! Jk, but honestly, very cool moths man.

Pretty—for a moth. First one reminds me of cotton candy.

I love those pictures. The Dyrocampa looks like it is made out of pipe cleaners.

Awesome! I'm stuck with the smaller moths out here in Oregon, but we do have a few colorful ones (that don't necessarily belong here but still ARE here), like this:

Do you ever upload to Bugguide?

Is your pink one the one they call the Rosy Maple Moth? (I've looked at a lot of bug books over the years and things are just sort of waiting for opportunities to express themselves.)

Dryocampa rubicunda is commonly called rosy maple moth. I can't seem to find any saturniids (moths or caterpillars) where I love. Any advice on where to find them, A?

Yep. Tansy moths. See them ALL THE TIME. I used to collect their caterpillars and feed them tansy from the field behind us.

Is "M0TH3R H0M1N1D" equivalent to mother hominid—as in a female australopithecine? If so, that explains a lot. AHAHAHAHA! :stuart:
