7 Spectacular Moths in Slow Motion!

[@LUEFSolutions]

This really highlights how much energy it take to fly. These lil’ guys are pumping their wings so hard to get their pudgy bodies to take flight!

[@curlygurly2112]

evolution has done a lot of really interesting things to save every bit of energy possible, one being that the wings can't flap independently in most moth species! if one flaps, they both flap, even in dead specimens. really cool stuff going on with these little guys :)

[@shaktosh524]

@@icecreamlarry8622 They live up to a week in general. Most species do not have mouths so once the caterpillars turn into moths, they depend on the nutrient they ate as larvae. That is why caterpillars have a voracious apetite, they need to be big eaters in order to survive long enough as adults to be able to mate in time. There are a *very* few exceptions that do have mouths, or rather proboscis, the thingy that butterflies have to feed on nectar. For example, the hawkmoths are a family of moths that can eat and they feed on nectar, being another animal that pollinate flowers. They can live up to a month as far as I know.

It looks so dirpy yet magnificent. Also this really shows how much effort there is in flying

The rosy maple is my favorite!!! Lil peanut of pink and yellow, the cutest thing ever. Chinese moon is a _veeerrryy_ close second, so dramatic with the pastels and curls (kinda like me lol).

Despite having a fear of moths, I think they’re absolutely beautiful and adorable creatures♥︎ I just hate how it feels like they always fly towards me 🥲♥︎♥︎♥︎

[@Justaaaine]

I was having a bad mental health day today, and seeing these furry flying babies made my whole day 💕 thank you so much for sharing!

[@rkeikiokalanim]

Moths, by far, are my favorite flying insects. These slo-mo videos are the coolest thing on KZbin. Thank you!

[@spamuel98]

I still remember my great grandma taking care of a moth in a giant jar in her house years ago, the thing was massive. It looked a lot like that dark marathyssa, but it was a good two inches long and was fed mostly honey water in an upside down jar lid. It actually couldn't really fly because its wings were messed up, which was why she was taking care of it.

[@bellarose6509]

19:21 EST: I feel as if I have just watched angels take flight! How beautiful and mesmerizing to watch, thank you. This is what KZbin was meant for …sharing knowledge and appreciation of the beauty of this world.❤

[@jhilamhazra8097]

The Rosy Maple Moth is soo gorgeous, the most beautiful insect I have ever seen. And how did no one mention how much similar Polyphemous Moth looks similar to Mothra from the Ventral Side.

[@missmingles]

This video is serotonin, and so is your raw and authentic appreciation for these little sweethearts! Thank you for giving us this footage. I love it so much.

[@chelelee6321]

This is beautiful. The slow motion and close up made the moths look like graceful, magical creatures. They are truly underrated.

[@Starsmad]

I once went to a sleep away camp. There were moths everywhere! My friends and I would pick them up and watch them walk over our arms. We would then release them and make sure they went exactly back to where they came from. Moths are so beautiful!

You did something good here, sir. This simple video just remind me how magical the creatures around us are. We ignore them almost every day! Life really has so many amazing things we take for granted. I wouldn't look at moths the same way again.

They are all so beautiful and majestic. Last year an angle shades moth came in my house to shelter from storm Arwen. Wasn't sure what to feed it but it seemed happy with some honey. It left a few days after the storm. It was a privilege to spend time with a lovely wild creature.

These slow-motion shots of moths taking flight are absolutely mesmerizing! The grace and delicacy with which they flutter their wings is simply adorable. Nature truly has its own way of captivating us. 🦋💕

Growing up I always loved moths more than butterflies because they were more proportional. Now, I see why. Though I've changed and love both flying creatures the same now.
