This moth knows a thing or two. Nice protected & defensive position.
Started out with two, a bright red one and black one. 30 minutes later the gangs all here. Swinger beetles. Picture is bad, but any idea what's going on here? Mate matching??

Ha! Oh man that's pretty cute. I'd have a hard time kicking him/her out, looks so content. He's guarding your grafting stock!
I was routinely knocking my shoes out before putting them on yesterday when a toad about this size tumbled out.

I did have a hard time moving him lol. He didnt want to come out, he kept berrying himself deeper when I tried to grab him. Ive moved him 4 times and he keeps finding his way back somehow. Always the same pot too. Never seen anything like it

Got these last night, never thought this little camera could catch detail, especially of the buzzing bees.
This hummingbird sized moth has been hanging around the past few nights catching these blooms. It's pretty cool, he's not worried about me at all. He's got things to do.

Yeah they come at all times of the day, it's strange.

LOL I had the same thing happen to me with my tobacco seedlings. I took a pic but I don't know what I did with it. I'll search for it today and put it up on here. It must be really warm where you are slowgrow.

I had to relocate him. And I havnt seen him since I feel kinda bad for taking away his home. And hot? You have no idea...well maybe you do lol. The average high for the last month has been somewhere in the mid 90's, and super humid. It sucks...
