According to the Vatican the Christmas period extends until the first Sunday after Kings Day.
So it is still time to express my desire that all my Flickr's friends have had a happy and blessed Christmas, and that this festive climate of peace, faith and friendship extends throughout 2025.
I still can't find time to be at Flickr as I did it earlier, but I just mean that I miss all you and the affection along the ten years I was most active here.
See you soon!

Cytheronia Brisotii/ Skull moth is a Species of Lepidoptera in the Family of Giant Silkworm Moths.
From a huge horns caterpillar called “Infernal Caterpillar” and “Devil's Caterpillar” one could not expect anything else: it turns into a moth that has the design of a angry skull on each wing. But this species is completely harmless, both in the state of caterpillar and in the form of moth.
Skull -shaped designs on the wings of these moths are unique in each specimen, as are our fingerprints.
Since they do not feed as adults, they should live shortly, probably not much more than a week. But this is compensated for its reproduction efficiency.
*This is all I found in the web about this strange moth I photographed last September at the same hotel I use to see hummingbirds.
Happy Halloween to all my Flickr friends!

Photos of hummingbirds near the feeder are not my favorites, but I like the challenge attitude of these little creatures, both beautiful and territorialist.
Who holds the feeder is my daughter, one is looking at me very allert, and in the second photo the other little hummingbird certainly resents the approach of another bird of the same species.
As always the photos were taken in the Itatiaia National Park, Rio de Janeiro.
I hope my friends and contacts forgive me for the absence and little dedication to Flickr recently. I am no longer receiving the emails that make it possible to know all who accessed my gallery, leaving comments or adding my photos as fave. Notifications are incomplete making it difficult not only to know but also to reciprocate everyone. Thank you very much for the affection and attention!
*In these recent days I am unable to be more than two hours online, recovering from cataract surgery. Gradually I try to update everything I have lost, but it is quite difficult due to the high number of photos posted, and big access to my gallery.
I hope to return to normal after November 15th.
Have a nice day everyone!
