If anyone of you remember I went to the Bug Fair at the Los Angeles Natural History Museum back in May. I forgot to post the pictures of what i bought.

So here they are. Just a small part of my collection.


Atlas Moth (Attacus atlas)


As Big as a grown person's hand or even bigger

Love that Luna moth; I've seen some very big ones in my day.

Those are the reason why Motorcyclists, and open-cockpit Pilots wear Goggles... ;)...!

Many of those BIG bugs require me to wear my Crash Helmet, as well... :o...!

Without wearing Goggles, some of those Bugs will take your flippin' eye out, traveling at speed...(or even remove your head!)... :o... :o... :o... ;D...!

An excellent collection, Alex*...;)..!

Paul...Bug splattered Goggles... 8-)...!

* Alias; Gill Grissom.....CSI (Crime Scene Investigation) Las Vegas... ;)...!

True, i' ve had some smaller bugs already hitting my face with quite a speed when biking. So i wouldnt like encountering one of those when biking :o.

Those creatures are plainly creapy, im glad we dont have those buggers over here.
