41. Oh, I don't know, I think their are a lot of very beautiful moths, and...
...some very boring Butterflies too. Not many know but, their are a lot of dull brown butterflies, but most people think that the brown ones are moths.

Moths are often beautiful in a different way, their complexity and intricate wing designs. A lot of the moths I get here are not even pictured on the USGS Moth website.

I've seen several different moths that have what looks like thin metallic Gold strips that edge it's wings. I bet I've seen 50 to 100 different moths here, resting by the back porch light.

Look at these, I like these a lot:

I have a few pictures of a few odd moths I've photographed, if you're still interested. Let me know if you are.
