Rich Dong recently photographed a Ceanothus Silkmoth.

As did John Sheafe. These large moths can measure up to five inches wingtip to wingtip.

I've often wondered if Nike got their idea for their swoosh from the markings on this moth. Below is a photo of Ceanothus in bloom, this photo taken by Bob Rutemoeller.

Thanks to Rich, Bob and John for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

Another sunny, breezy (perhaps windy by afternoon!) day today.

Spring doesn't know...
