Members came together to celebrate the beauty of moths, sharing stunning photos and facts about favorites like Luna moths, Madagascan sunset moths, Cecropia moths, and the hummingbird moth, which several noted mimics a real hummingbird in flight. A recurring theme was joyful discovery, with many members expressing they never knew moths could be so colorful and unique, and one member shared a fond memory of raising Cecropia caterpillars into moths as a teenager. The thread also naturally expanded into other nature sightings, including butterflies, deer, moose, and raccoons, with members bonding over a shared love of the natural world.

hummingbird moth These have been seen here in alaska and I have yet to see one. I've seen a lot of pictures and they are amazing. They fly just like a hummingbird and have a long, curled tongue that sucks nectar from flowers.
