Moth Question (Also looking for group FAQ)

[Randy Emmitt]

Paul,

I have 95 species of wild butterfly photos at my site. It`s all NC
butterflies and would be 90% of what you see there in Fla. I`m a nature
photographer than specializes in butterflies and dragonflies.  I do not know
moths though.

Regards,

Randy Emmitt
