**Nerd Alert -- Lepidopterist Edition**

Confirming that it is like Wild Kingdom here at Casa Inertia, I give you pictures of a luna moth that came out of its pupa today. (TLS found several pupas around the yard last summer and kept them in the garage over the winter. Apparently, today was the appointed day for luna moth #1 to make its appearance.) Photos for your enjoyment and edification:
