a Crombrugghia plume moth enjoying some sunlight. next to their hilarious name and tv antenna leg spines, my favorite thing about these is the way their resting pose almost always includes that dainty leg cross, in contrast to their very undainty demeanor

It is officially BUG SEASON! in Chicagoland! @crevicedwelling , @onenicebugperday. I am delighted 🥰

I found a lovely Two-Spotted Stink Bug today!…

An adorable plume moth!…

… And this butterfly that I’d like a bit of help ID’ing. They’re doing courtship flights right now.

I love Bug Season 🐛🐜🐞 Some of my favorites are “stinkie bugs.” They are all named Jerri/Gerry.
