Dragonfly

DateSat 2015-07-25

A male emperor dragonfly, Anax imperator (Odonata: Aeshnidae).  This specimen was much more docile than usual and I was able to get very close to it.

Green Moth

DateSun 2015-07-12

An emerald moth, Hemithea aestivaria (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) that my daughter found in her bedroom. 

Almost exactly a year ago I found one in our living room.
