I have a wide variety of interests, including fossils and nature. I have been studying nature in New Mexico for several years.

Butterfly commented on by Graham Monroe City of Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom6 years ago

It looks a little like a white admiral but I do not think they are in Scotland.

Achemon sphinx commented on by Graham Monroe Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA6 years ago

Nice spotting! That is a beautiful moth that I have been studying for a long time. The camouflage on their wings is unbelievable.

Wow I really love the comparison - shows the moth's amazing camouflage.

Thanks for the ID! Glad to finally figure out what this guy is.

Thanks! Yes it is a beautiful plant. Really unique.

Newly Hatched Praying Mantis commented on by Graham Monroe New Mexico, USA6 years ago

No this is not an adult. There were several small mantises right by a set of eggs, so it appeared that they had just hatched. I do not know the ID so I am going with Kris Anderson's suggestion because it looks like he knows what he's talking about.
