#cecropia #moth

We had the pleasure of spending a few minutes with a Cecropia Moth that actually seemed to prefer resting on a human hand. I may never get a better photo of one of these beauties. 😀

Ink drawing of a cecropia moth that has been digitally coloured. A white, fuzzy body is accented with bright red legs, head, and markings along its abdomen. 

The wings are primarily brown, with bands of white, red, black, and cream toward the outer margins. A white crescent shape is present on both the fore and aft wings.

The moth is sitting on a branch amongst some greenery, while a bright yellow-orange sunset illuminates the background.

Signed "DIRX" and dated 2/10/26.

I've been poking at this cecropia moth on-and-off for a month now. Once I embraced the scribbly style I usually use in traditional drawing, I was finally able to get the texture to something I was happy with.

The cecropia moth is North America's largest native moth. This one was found at my home in Wisconsin.

This is such a niche tip/trick but if you keep any kind of silk moth, keep the habitat zippers closed in the middle instead of the top or bottom end. Why? For the reason one of my guys is doing right now: deciding to cocoon on the end of the zipper lmao #lunarlilepidoptera #caterpillar #cecropia

Upside down leaf of the trumpet bush showing how white it is. The locals use the keaves to predict rain, when the leaves on the tree show their white underside then rain is on the way.

Today I saw this amazing tree, #Trumpetbush #Cecropia peltata, far taller than I'd anticipated, growing in situ in mezoic forest on #Montserrat. I knew the reverse of the leaves were white, but they're far whiter than I realised. My #botanicalillustration of this plant looked right otherwise, phew.

The wonders of Nature never cease, this time it was a pair of Cecropia Moths mating that took our breath away. They are insanely impressive with their 6-inch wingspan. One kilometre. #nature #butterfly #cecropia #photography #wildlife #insects

Found an alien in the lawn, kept it in an atrium for 6 months and it turned into the most beautiful moth. #Cecropia

After mating, the female #Cecropia moth will lay more than 200 eggs in small batches. These moths cannot eat; they live less than 2 weeks. #Moths #Cincinnati

Cecropia Moths - it took about 20 minutes after the female emerged from the brown cocoon for the male to find her (pheromones) & mate! #Cecropia #Moths #Cincinnati
