I have been trying to photograph moths feeding at daylily flowers at night. So far I have found it is a true thing that they do not come out if a camera is noticeable. There was a lovely moth last night but by the time I got upstairs for the camera and back, it was gone. I must admit it was setting a cracking pace from bloom to bloom.

But I was surprised to see a Lynx Spider active. It must be a tough run for the moths. You would think the spiders would be sated by day's end when you see how many of my native bees they knock off.

The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.
