✨ Comet Moth Spotlight ✨

one of the most impressive moths on this planet, native to Madagascar. πŸ’›
the males have powerful wings with long flowing tails that act as an expendable distraction if they get caught in a predators grasp. ⚑
their huge feathery antennae help them seek out female pheromones from very far away! πŸ’«
it's been ten years since I've had one of these as adults - cannot believe just how beautiful they are. πŸ₯Ή

a wonderful day at Midlands Nature Festival! πŸ›πŸ„
had such a great time talking to everyone about insects and why entomology is such a great thing to be involved in. thankyou if you chatted to me or rehomed a bug. πŸͺ²
the butterflies were enjoying the sun soooo much πŸ¦‹πŸŒž, though the caterpillars were a bit toasty! πŸ”₯
they're nice and cool now (as am I thank goodness πŸ˜‚) xo

super excited to tell you I'll be returning to the Midlands Festival of Nature 2026 at Wicksteed Park, Kettering by Kettering Nature Group this wknd! 🌿

the event will be even better than last year - showcasing the best of nature, conservation and outdoor wellness for every age. Full of pop-ups, nature-themed stalls, educational talks, music, art, and loads of exciting learning experiences celebrating the natural world! πŸ¦‡πŸŒ·

I'll be there with the bugs of course! 🐞
I'm bringing an abundance of really cool entomology resources and fun materials to learn from and get hands-on with - including butterflies and caterpillars! πŸ›πŸ›

alongside this I'll have a biiig bundle of insect specimen artwork and natural history-inspired homeware if you fancy treating yourselves! πŸ‚πŸ„

what an honour to visit my local Tresham College and host an educational pop-up for the students! πŸ›
i was asked to talk to everyone about biodiversity and the importance of insects, and we all had the best time. 🐞
incredibly inspiring and heart-warming that so many people took the time to interact with my display, hold caterpillars and moths, read, learn and ask questions... what a beautiful day. πŸ¦‹
this is what makes all my work worth it. I am forever happy to do things like this, so please feel free to chat to me! 😊🐝

✨ io Moth Spotlight ✨

tiny guy alert! one of the cutest little moth species that hides a startling couple of eyespots. πŸ‘€
I always think it looks like there's a nebula in the middle. 🌌
these came to me in their cocoons all the way from Canada!
I had three males emerge, but sadly the female is still SNOOZING πŸ’€ so no larvae this time round. which is a shame as they're my faaaave even though they're covered in painful toxin-laden spikes! πŸ›
