Look at this thing – it’s like a stuffed animal. It’s a cecropia moth and boy is it big. Like this big. And here’s what it looked like in its fourth phase of being a caterpiller.
San Francisco’s Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park is having its Butterfly Zone Special Exhibit these days, so you should check it out.
And don’t forget about the Night Safaris on the first and third Thursdays of each month.
See you there!
