Dad used to fly Tiger Moths until his partner crashed and killed a girl while taking farm rides. His love of aviation didn’t dissipate and here’s to remembering him on Civil Aviation Day

Just a joy to watch. Both days were perfect for this

It’s National Moth Week, July 20-28, to celebrate the beauty, lifecycles and habitat of moths, so I’m reposting my eclipse of moths (the delightful term of venery for a group of moths) and also for my #InsertAnInvert2024 wildcard week.
This hand-printed lino block print shows 5 of the noctural moths of Ontario in front of the moon at a lunar eclipse. The 5 moths are: the gorgeous green Luna moth (Actias luna),

I thought this unique cyanotype which makes me think of rebirth was a fit for the last day of #InverteFest and New Year’s Eve. Made on watercolour paper (11” x 14”) with an image of pussy willow and wildflowers and an image of my linocut skeleton and collaged lino block printed moths and butterflies. 1/2
My dad would have been 102 today had he not had a stroke. Seems strange to be thinking he could still be alive, but then I’m looking after a fully active 105 yo who celebrates his 106th birthday on the 18th!
Leonard, the 105 yo, escorted prisoners from Belsen concentration camp to Israel in 1945. He laughs how they were brought back from Egypt to intervene in the fighting between the Israeli’s and Palestinian’s
This is a unique hand made cyanotype on watercolour paper (8" x 10.25") with a deckle edge an image wildflowers and grasses with three linocut, moths. The moths are all found here in Ontario: the yellow and purplish-pink Imperial moth (Eacles imperialis), the red-orange, black and cream Virgin Tiger Moth (Apantesis virgo), and the black and white White Underwing (Catocala relicta).
Spotted this tiger moth at a crop swap meeting in southern Tasmania. Pretty little thing.
There, cut the bookmarks up. Look how 
fancy they are! :D

I wanted to paint moths today after seeing photos of tiger moths.. and I also wanted to make bookmarks. So I combined both urges and created this page which is to be cut up into bookmarks later on.
For now, enjoy the moths and colors in one piece.

Just a little update to the Emerald Tiger Moth (Callindra principalis) seen zipping about Bhutan at 2900m.
I first saw one two days ago, and posted those pics above. But then yesterday while visiting Gangtey Gonpa another one landed right in front of me while walking the grounds of the gonpa!

Not too many #moths in the trap this morning but a good selection of species.
Highlights included: #GardenTiger & #ScallopedOak.
