Your article on Hiroshima is very emotionally written. I know the wounds still run deep in people's mind and only can wish that Japanese people have forgiven our forefathers.

Ladybug - I'm amazed that humming birds go that far north. Would love to see some pics. We didn't have them in Hawaii, but used to feed them when I lived in So. Cal.
Hope - thanks for the comment. I hope you sell a lot of those bikes,but no more ads please. ;)
Snabby - Eeyore. Naw. I'm pretty sure you're more of a Pooh.
What a beauty. It constantly amazes me to see so many patterns and variatons on tiny creatures. No wonder Mr Darwin was a curious man wanting to know it all. w.
By the way, there were two very interesting articles in National Geographic recently - one in the December 08 issue, "The Man Who Wasn't Darwin: Alfred Russel Wallace and the Founding of Evolutionary Biology" the other in the February 09 issue, "Darwin's First Clues".

huge!
Yes, she (I just know it's a she) is beautiful. ;)
I wonder if she'll turn into a butterfly with that same pattern. You think?
Very nice picture. PandaB. Thanks for sharing it.
K and S - it was pretty big, about a centimeter in diameter and several cm long.
HappySurfer - indeed it did. It became a swallowtail butterfly. Just google "Papilio machaon" and you'll find pictures of them.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Pretty, :)
Another amazing picture! I'll see if Snabby can get some of the humming birds that occasionally visit us later this year....
prego-not a spaghetti sauce in my book....or maybe one that takes 9 months to make! :P

That bug is as cute as it's own ear.
Nice shot. It probably turns into some non-descript super-dusty gray moth. (Sorry, Eeyore took over my mind for a moment.)
Ice Galcial - hi.

Wendy - nature is wonderful and full of beauty.

everytime, i visit your blog, i want to go to japan again, haha.
btw, fox has always been a esoteric character in japan... as a spirit, as a cute fur ball. hmmm.
in the western world, it is crafty wicked chicken stealer.
i wonder why...
Robin - glad to see you're feeling well enough to drop by and leave a comment.
In ancient Japanese folklore, foxes are also crafty. They can shape-shift and use their disguise to lead humans into folly.
I'm glad my wife didn't see that. She has an irrational fear of caterpillars.
To Mrs. Moody - it was a full meter long and chased me around the yard!
A full meter long only when Mrs. Moody sees it, maybe ;) Hope you didn't lost many carrots (although you don't mind)
Talk about National Geographic - it definitely cost me more here, but bringing them back to Malaysia is bigger headache. Huh ;p
@ロウ 。LOW@ - you wandering twice-a-year blogger. Hope you are well.
