This morning, I learned (via the NC Extension Master Gardeners’ Twitter feed) that the week of July 20-28, 2013 is National Moth Week. The NCEMG tweets included links to interesting articles and beautiful photos of moths, which I’m sharing below.

First, from the Extension Master Gardener blog: http://blogs.extension.org/mastergardener/2013/07/22/national-moth-week-july-20-28/

On Facebook, the NC Extension Master Gardeners shared these photos: https://www.facebook.com/NcExtensionMasterGardeners/posts/596753847012776

Project Noah’s blog contains this article about sphinx and hawk moths. The photos are gorgeous! http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/56170892604/sphingidae
