Generally speaking, moths aren’t as flashy as butterflies. There are some exceptions. The luna moth is one of the largest lepidopteran. Its lime green wings are a beauty to behold. When they emerge from the chrysalis, they don’t even have a working mouth. Their sole purpose at that point is to reproduce. They only live about a week. I don’t know who this fellow is, but I think he has his own beauty. Like most butterflies, this moth has a proboscis and is enjoying a meal of pollen from this cockscomb.

As the title of this post suggests, there will be a brief pause in posting Today’s Devotion while the author re-connects with his spirituality. It should be back online sometime in the near future. In the meantime, keep coming back for more Beautiful Photographs.Could this rather scary looking fellow be a giant leopard moth or some such? It appeared on the doorstep of a friend who was left afraid to cross the threshold into her house. Help from a entomologist would be greatly appreciated!
