It's huge!

Amazing series! :-)

That is a great Mantis! Awesome find. :-)

Sounds like you found a chanterelle patch. I can't see the gills that well. Possibly Cantharellus cibarius - http://www.mushroomexpert.com/cantharell...

Looks like an Eastern Yellowjacket. :-)

Very nice! :-)

Thanks, I definitely agree! Sometimes I wish I had a dollar for everytime I walked into their webs... :-)

Nice series. :-)

Thank-you Annvan. Self medication and cryoprotectants are not typically something I think about in moths. It is truly amazing to think that this species has these abilities! :-)

Congrats on a well deserved SOTD!
