Corinne pointed out that we had some very strange looking moths on our kitchen screen... so, of course, I got out the camera!
| Tree-Bark Moth? | |
|---|---|
| This first moth looks like it's intended to hide on treebark. I haven't seen any hiding on any local trees... so I guess that proves it, right? | |

| A closeup of the same moth. It has hair! OK, not exactly, but it definitely has a fuzzy head. (Look at the largest version for the most detail, if you have time.) | |

| Wooden Moth? | |
| I really think this moth is beatiful. It appears to be very carefully carved out of wood, maybe mohogany, and then highly polished. | |

| Salmon Colored Mohawk Moth | |
| This is the third moth that was on the screen... it was very strange to find three such 'exotic' looking moths in the same place, at the same time. | |

| This time you can really see the moth's salmon-colored "mohawk" - and yes, those massive metal bars that it's clinging to are really just the wires in the kitchen screen. | |
