Stunning insects in North America!
We have had a great tour so far! Yesterday I was quite high, like I was on drugs. I saw my first Praying Mantis! Do you know how cool they are?! I almost could't sleep last night, I was so happy 🙂 They are very impressive and formidable predators, camouflage experts and they can swivel their […]

Little monster
What an interesting find on my walk today! And I love smartphones. They are smart enough to have a camera just when it is needed one! A caterpillar (or maybe better to call it larva because it's the offspring of a moth rather than a butterfly) of Elephant hawkmoth, Deilephila elpenor (Större snabelsvärmare). It's really hughe and it […]
