Let's talk Bugs

[infinidem]

I was very impressed the first time I saw a Phylliidae. However, I would not eat salad for a few months thereafter.

I can understand that..LOL While living in Thailand I some times was offered a few tasty bugs to enjoy, but i declined.

Never "loved" insects myself, but do remember as a kid, being fascinated by them. I had a paralizing fear of spiders, but used to sit for hours watching them build their websites... especially the Orb Weavers. Once they built it I'd go catch me a bug of some sort, stun it a little & toss it in the web to watch the final outcome. I kept catching bigger bugs just to see how valiant the spider was. As long as the web held, the spider would win. Even wasps were eventual victims. Enjoyed your video!

[samuelbecket1977]

I too loved to watch spiders in the corner of the basement and do own a Orb Weaver myself. Spiders are so important in the balance of nature. thanks for the comment.

I just followed the link on Jill Hanner's Twitter to this video. Those are amazing insects. I thought that one on the left (my left) is a butterfly, but you said it called an Atlas moth. Is that a butterfly or not?

Do you want to see my ants video called Metropolis? It's the URL ending on v=OUVHXequb8A (or the cockchafer on kf0cRHvu7rw)

[samuelbecket1977]

Its a moth...Attacus Atlas....I'll check out where its from and let you know..i will also watch your ant video...i 'dig" ants...LOL
