Moths

I have a little brown cocoon of an idea that may possibly expand into a magnificent moth of fulfilment.
~Lucy Maud Montgomery

A couple of years ago, I found a Pandora sphinx moth (deceased) and it was so cool-looking that it made me more interested in moths. When I was a kid, butterflies were the focus of our attention and moths were mostly discussed vis a vis sweater-eating. Moths are "hipper" now, in that they are part of some aesthetics. I'm so glad we're taking more of an interest in them because wow!
