Dusty, Scruffy Wings
To feed upon Colorado wildflower’s nectar The gray miller moth has flying habits crepuscular. From Kansas and Nebraska the migration has begun. Pilgrimage is nocturnal; they fly when the day is done. Pausing frequently; one-inch lepidopterist insects Come inside, uninvited, to entertain the house cats. They hide behind our coats and inside cereal boxes. Seeking a hiding place; they explode from dark crevasses! Four membranous wings continuously exfoliate. The gray dusty miller, thus named, flies as nature does dictate. With sun and substance and sketch of God’s eye-analysis “They’ll be gone within a month” says the entomologist! —Ramona DeKrey Community Friend |
