Around the Island

Come out, come out, wherever you are: Find the moth

 

MACKENZIE NEEDHAM PHOTO | This rare and beautiful creature was found dozing in yesterday’s heat.

Mackenzie Needham spied this extraordinary creature  when she was at work yesterday at Coecles Harbor Marina.

Known as a  a regal moth, it had about a 4- inch wingspan.

The regal is common in Dixie, but  lately has become rare around these parts.

Thanks to Mackenzie, for finding hidden beauty on a hot summer’s day.
