Not a new one for me but rather an almost regular visitor every year and not just for Halloween! 🙂 And yes, some are black, but definitely not all of the Black Witch Moth, Ascalapha odorata (linked to my gallery) with some having the rich multi colors of this one on my bedroom drapes. When my maid swept the floor the next morning, he was one of several dead insects she swept up. And he is big! 8-10 inch wingspread!
¡Pura Vida!
Sad Day for America
What can I say when the majority of my home country just re-elected a criminal, fascist, racist, rapist, liar for president? I’m sure glad I moved to Costa Rica 10 years ago! Every great nation in history has fallen when it began to rot from within. Is that what is happening to the USA? It is not the country I grew up in, though I saw continuing movement this direction over the last 30 years. I will now spend my final days of life peacefully here in Costa Rica surrounded by nature and trying to ignore what used to be home. I wish all my friends and family in the states the best and believe you will survive as “this too shall pass.” And with you I will hope for a better future.
