tons of moths around in isle royale last week! not sure if the smokey conditions contributed to seeing so many or if it was just the right time

Southcoast UK, New Forest

Hi guys, just joined, this is a chibi moth girl i drew

Hope you like it! :)

In Missouri USA. Are these eggs under the left(our right) wing?

this guy is Lophocampa Roseata, also known as the Rosy Aemilia moth. They’re native to the Pacific Northwest, and are extremely pretty in my opinion. I see their caterpillars a lot during the fall season, but this is actually my first time seeing one of the moths in person! He moved around a bit, hence why some photos are on the ground and some are by our porch light.

Love small moths so much!! Although the larger ones are pretty spectacular to see. This ermine chilled out w me for a while which is always fun

Found Avon, UK

i think he hurt his wing a bit:(( trying to help him get more comfortable but i’m afraid there isn’t much i can do.

My husband ran to the gas station and found this baby on the ground, he confirmed it was still alive and brought it home to me, we have a lot of trees and see lots of cool moths and he knows I love them.

It’s hardly moving and doesn’t seem to be able to walk or grip on anything, it has fluttered its wings. I am hoping to figure out if it’s a male or female in case it’s a female who hasn’t laid and I can find a host tree for her. But because it’s not gripping I have it in a container next to me, it isn’t moving at all in it.

Just trying to do what’s best for this baby in what it seems to be the end of its life. ❤️

Thanks in advance.

a caught a moth/butterfly that was having trouble flying and kinda flopping. found in sask, canada. how do i help it?

Found in walmart in northern Maryland. I let him go outside today to finish his days

this girl has been clinging to the wall in a parking garage for the past several days. I assumed she was dead because she hadn’t moved in days. today i thought if she’s still there maybe I’ll try to take her home and see if i can preserve her??

so today i took a plastic cup to try and scoop her up. but as i did so she seemed to like… tense away from the cup? She didn’t fly away, and she’s still in the same spot. but she seemed to react a little. so idk if she’s alive but in torpor or some equivalent, or if she’s dead and it was just the cup pushing at her weirdly. how do i tell?

and if she is dead should i go forward with taking her? and what can i do with her in that case?

Okay thankssss

I found this beautiful large moth when I was opening at work, those olive greens and brown colorings are beautifully put together like a leaf. (downriver, Michigan)

Saw this lovely Jersey Tiger Moth this evening! Spotted in south west England.

First time seeing a clear winged moth very cool

Sabah, Malaysia

Why 30th Tent Caterpillar Moths wouldn't to leave inside of the wall building? So I let them go outside the door opening with a beautiful day on sun shining ✨️

Found this lil guy on the ground while feeding the chickens, hes alive but he cant seem to fly well? He flutters his wings a bit and got off the ground a teeny tiny bit he cant seem to really fly. I have him in a little container rn with some leaves cause i didnt want him to get eaten. Is he OK? Is it just because its daytime? ​what is he? does he need water? Found in Georgia usa

EDIT: it just let him go outside and he flew away! I think he just needed some chill time away from my chickens :3

found this dude outside the house on the grill cover, about 2-3ish inches i think? i usually only see tinier moths this time of year, it’s my first time seeing one this large.

Can anyone tell me the name of this large moth? Super cool pattern.

Found a moth in Copenhagen. Can anyone help to identify?
