Here's a very cool song inspired by the Ghost Orchid, search "Ghost Orchid by Frank M. Rodriguez" on youtube.

This is an absolutely amazing video. As an author, I have found the ghost orchid mesmerizing in all its unique beauty and mystery. I invite you to pick up a copy of Ghost Orchid at Corkscrew Sanctuary gift shop (all gift shop sales benefit Corkscrew) or at local B&N stores or online - and walk the Corkscrew Sanctuary boardwalk in search of your own mystical experience.

I saw a document about this once on tpt, they had taped the moth for a longer period.

I am almost positive that show was on a similar orchid and moth (but different species) located in Madagascar.

Great! but could be a closer viewing

[opyte]

is the sphinx moth he green thing hanging off the tree or the bird like thing?

[chrisaggie]

The sphinx moth is the hummingbird like animal. The ghost orchid is the flower hanging off the tree.
