Releasing my Cecropia Moth……

This is one of the females that I released yesterday. It was a cloudy and rainy day so she wasn’t really ready to fly. They like it a bit warmer to get the energy to fly. I was out in the field by myself so I had to hold the camera and try and get her to climb onto my hand and fly off if it had been sunny and warm you would have seen her fly. I finally had to put her onto a tree I’ll post that one next.
