Eli found this cecropia moth yesterday! It was just hanging out on our maple tree in the backyard. It is a female so we put her in Ernie's old cage and placed her by the back garage. She then attracted a male!! Brian saw him flying around the cage first thing this morning so he caught him and put him in the cage with her. We are so excited to get the chance to raise these beautiful creatures! We will keep you updated as to the process! Here are a few pictures and a video. Enjoy!
"This is the best thing I've seen all summer!" haha! What a quick little guy you got there! How cool!!!
