SOME OF THE THINGS I'V NOTICED WHEN I STOP AND SLOW DOWN

in #homesteading7 years ago


   I had to do a double take at first when i saw this little guy under the light on the porch!! It was the first time I saw a moth like that. I learned that it is the Rosy Maple Moth, a small North American moth in the great silk moths family.



   This VORACIOUS HUNTER I found under one of the leaves of my little lime tree. I learned this guy is a Green Lynx Spider and does a great job at protecting the lime tree from insects.

THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY!!

Great pictures. I have never seen a moth like this myself. Cool...

How cool! That moth is amazing and the spider is a little frightening! But if its protecting the fruit, it cant be that bad! :)

Thank you @smylie2005!! The spider will eat any bug trying to munch on the leaves or fruit.😁

The moth looks like it should be a stuffed toy! Amazing!

Thank you @minismallhoding! I hope I see them again this year.

Those are great photos! I remember finding my first Rosy Maple Moth when I was 12. It was already dead, but I kept it for a long time. It was just too pretty. I had a small collection of those kinds of things I found in nature.

Thank you for sharing your memory @herhur240! If I saw this as a kid I would probably still believe in fairies. lol. 😄😁😆😅😂
