Pack your bags, we're going on a leaf layer safari 🍂🔍 At first glance, a pile of autumn leaves might look like nothing more than yard debris. But hidden in that layer are secret survival shelters: the cocoons of North America’s largest and most spectacular moths! With this guide, you’ll learn how to identify the hidden winter homes of four giant silk moths—Cecropia, Io, Luna, and Polyphemus—so that you can set out on your own backyard leaf layer safari.

Moths are stunningly beautiful! Thank you for featuring them and sharing the photos.
Beautiful 😍
So beautiful, National Wildlife Federation! I always assumed moths were all like the ones I saw around my porch light until I read Girl of the Limberlost - then I realized they can be just as beautiful as butterflies! Limberlost is on my list of places to visit, although I suspect it isn't what it was when the book was written.
What beautiful creatures! I love their colors!
Amazing 😍
Fascinating 🧐
