While I, Timber, was on patrol watching for Miss Fluffy to make her appearance, I spotted something interesting on the deck.
Hmmm, what could THAT be???
Let me get a little closer. What is it, Mom???
It looks like a butterfly to me, Timber - maybe a Meadow Brown or a Brown Meadow???
If you say so, Mom. Whatever it is, it looks like it wants to be friends (unlike that scratchy, crunchy cicada I found last night). It is smiling at me, so I am going to give it a great big smile too.

Butterflies are part of nature, right? Let's join the Nature Friday Blog Hop sponsored by the Adventures of the LLB Gang.
What a great find, Timber, and we are loving your fabulous smile!
ReplyDeleteAnd it is smiling at you, like a little emoji ... and how sweet of you to smile back!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful moth you found, Timber. According to the Google machine it's a North American giant silk moth.
ReplyDeleteI thought 'she' looked like a moth, as well, but I was not 100% sure.... ;op

That is not a butterfly. It's a moth! It's called a Polyphemus Moth. It is simply stunning! We are envious.

They are beautiful parts of nature if you ask me. This looks like one of the kind which uses camouflage tries to make predators think it's a big, scary creature to be left alone.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful flutterby you found, Timber!
ReplyDeleteWhatever it is, it sure is pretty! (Redford would have eaten it, just sayin')
ReplyDeleteYour friend Rosie
Woo! It *IS* smiling at you! How sweet!
ReplyDeleteSure is a pretty little friend!
