One of the programs we attended at the Allegany Nature Pilgrimage was Night Insects. A very strong light was set up next to a white sheet. It was a bit chilly and breezy, so we didn’t see a lot of insects… But there were a few interesting visitors!
The Setup (I love the way this photo turned out… No flash! – none used for the following pictures, either:)
June Bug
Sphinx Moth
Inchworm Moth
Cattail Borer

That first photo is really neat! It’s been so long since I’ve seen a Sphinx Moth. That’s a great way to see the insects
