First, the Black Witch Ascalapha Odorate, at over 6", our largest North American noctuid insect. I took the photo outside our house in Port Isabel.
You think that is one weird bug? I give you the Pearly Wood Nymph Eudryas unio. This is a one inch moth which, with wings folded, mimics a bird dropping. Ain't evolution grand?
Photo taken yesterday on a sheltered wall at Estero Llano Grande.
And finally, a Sickle-winged Skipper with its curled back wing tips.
