The Atlas moth does not have a fully developed mouth and only lives a couple of weeks.
It’s also the only known species of insect to successfully mimic a predator. This is shown by the upper tips of their top wings, which look like the heads of snakes.

Mr Paddington Brown.
Like a lot of people, I was appalled when I saw that Paddington Bear was recently cruelly and senselessly beaten with the ugly stick.
My friend Eimhin McNamara made this illustration of Paddington, with the original red hat. I gave him the black hat of the animated TV series because that’s how I think of Pastuso, and to show that it’s not adaptation I object to, but pissing all over a lovely character by giving preference to CG fur over good design.
Beautiful antique children’s fairytale illustration by Ida Rentoul Outhwaite, circa 1916 - featuring some of my favourite things. Bats, cats and a witch.
I Love it…
