Thanks for letting me look at the wildflower, the jack-in-the-pulpit. It brought back wonderful memories of hiking in my in-laws woods in CT and seeing some of those fabulous wildflowers! Please keep the site because it is the most complete site I have seen and nicest to. Best, T. Boyd

I had searched and saved a photo of a Zebra Swallowtail some years ago. Today, I was just going through random photos and ran across the Zebra. I opened it and saw Bob Moul's name on it, so did a search on his name. Wow, what a collection of beautiful photos! Going to keep looking at more, but wanted to drop a note. I'm a photo buff myself, and have a few decent photos, but getting time for more can be difficult. These photos of Bob's are an encouragement to me to keep at it. Thank you for keeping this site alive!

I am wanting to paint a photo of Bob’s from 2007 of two ring necked ducks. Can you give me this permission?

Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos. I was looking at different phases of the black swallowtail butterfly online and I found your amazing galleries.

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing with me.

Thank you to the Moul family for preserving your fathers legacy through his photographs!
I just retired and began taking pictures of dragonflies. I have some nice pictures, but none can compare to those of your Father's! I was hoping to meet your Father and perhaps receive some photography tips, but just noticed his passing.

May you find satisfaction knowing the joy and inspiration your Father's images continue bring so many people!

I hope your father can feel my gratitude for giving me additional reference for my biology presentation all the way from a little California college, because his pictures are beautiful.

Visited your site to try to identify caterpillar I found in the street. Acted like a swallowtail, but not any colors of the instars on your page.
Your site is very nice- informative, easy to read, and great pics!

I admire Bobs photos on the BAMONA website.

I am excited that I found such an amazing reference for the moths I'm finding here in Lancaster County.
Mary A. Yoder 14-Apr-2018 17:58
I saw a tolye moth in my parking place in 2009. I look on line to learn it's name. Just this week, my son-in-law posted to the web. Low and behold someone answered from WVA along with the name. Further reaserch, found your site. Was very pleased!!! THANL YOU!!
(please excuse my misspelling words- an old and had a stroke but am in wonder for all the things you see around us!!)
Steve Kohn 11-Feb-2018 21:25
Bob, I'm 71 and writing my memoirs. Not that my life has been that important or interesting, but it gives me a chance to pass on some lessons-learned to my six grandchildren, maybe to their future children as well, in the form of a story.

I just added something to the memoir about me finding a caterpillar when I was a boy in Pennsylvania. Believe it to be, thanks to your excellent photos, a black swallowtail. I'd put it in a cigar box, along with a twig and some leaves. In a few days it began changing, your site says into a chrysalis, but I kind of remember mine making a cocoon. So maybe wasn't a BS. (Not important to this lesson.) In the spring, I heard a fluttering from inside the box, and sure enough, a gorgeous butterfly. Am sure it had a lot to do with my lifelong love of science, especially biology.

Reason I'm writing is to wonder how long your website will be up, and if it will be up after your death. (I have the same concerns about my own website, so am not being morbid.) I've linked to your site, but will it be up in 25 or 50 years?

Great site, though, and thanks for all the time and work you've put into it.

Hoping you enjoy many more happy years.
Kathy Bowers 25-Jan-2018 16:27
Good to hear from you, Ann. Thank you for your note- the credit for maintaining the site goes to my brother, Rob ( or Bob - as most call him). I agree He does a stellar job with it. My email is kathybowers3@gmail.com. Please contact me directly to connect since I don’t see the email addresses entered on the site. Love to catch up. Thanks!

January 8 happy heavenly birthday Pop!
Love and miss you. ❤️
Kathy Bowers 09-Jan-2018 14:07
January 8 —- happy heavenly birthday, Pop. I took pictures of the first butterfly weed I planted to support the monarch caterpillars late summer which you always advocated. I was surprised at their lovely tiger stripes and when they disappeared into their little cocoon pods I wasn’t sure I hadn’t accidentally killed them.. I checked the pods regularly but thought maybe York County weather was too cool ....
My reward came one day when I caught sight of one small monarch as he lifted away - excitedly tried to get a picture but not as good as you were!
You were right, the Monarchs need support and I learned a lot from a simple $5 butterfly weed plant 😊.
Miss you Pop.
Sincere thanks to the many wonderful people in this community who continue to share the fascination of nature with us. It’s an amazing legacy and we are grateful for your messages—and sure he is smiling with us.
His daughter, Kathy

Wonderful images Bob, I have had a similar fascination with nature all my life. I also do nature photography. I will be back to view your galleries to help me identify the many wildflowers that grow here in the Finger Lakes Region of New York.

Thank you so much! I love to have found someone else who believes we let too much go unnoticed and more and more as time passes us by. Sharing with my granddaughter so she will continue to see her world with wide eyed wonder, as I have.

spent an hour pouring over your photos. Loved them. Thanks for sharing.
Guest 24-Mar-2017 16:15
Hi Bob,
We have had a colder rainier year here in Oakland cal, So wet that the "deserts are experiencing what's called a "super bloom."" (NPR)
I read that a wet year for deserts means a large painted lady population, I wonder what it means for our other butterflies,
We raise -release Anise Swallowtails, and I haven't seen 1yet.
I have seen Monarchs, cabbage white, a small skipper, and a tiny white butterfly near ivy.
Any thoughts?
Also. We have 29 chrisalises which didn't eclose, that each weigh 1gram. I read they can diapause, but how do I know, and where to keep them?
Thanks
Love your photos.

Hello Bob,
Came across your Images and was duly impressed.
The reason for looking is that I am seeking a Red Squirrel Image to use on a Small Fridge Magnet to sell commercially. One of your Red Squirrels looks excellent. Is it available and at what cost, if any is involved?
Guest 15-Jan-2017 19:07
I found your father's site while searching for images of siskins and goldfinches. thank you so much for keeping his site active! I, too, am a nature lover and backyard bird photographer. His pictures are inspiring and his message of love for nature, beautiful! he reminds me of my own father :-) such a wonderful thing to teach your children to love nature. thank you!

Thank you very much for keeping the site active. Bob’s photos are wonderful and always my first stop when trying to ID any wildlife. My thoughts are with the family on this day 9-11-16.
Bob Moul 11-Sep-2016 11:25
We miss you Pop. 9-11-11. You'd be happy to know you've had 3 million views on the site since your passing. People still write such lovely notes to you and ask for your advice. It makes me sad to tell them you're no longer with us but I know how happy you'd be when they contact you or ask to use one of your photos for a project. Through this website, this gift you gave us, we all still feel your presence. Love, Your Son

Hi Bob-
Years ago I followed your great bird photos, and just today was delighted to find your dragonfly galleries Superb photos.

Me? I'm still digiscoping birds, but have found that the odes are more cooperative subjects.
Saskia Van Vactor 10-Mar-2016 21:32
Hi Mr. Moul,
My name is Saskia Van Vactor. I am an art teacher at an elementary school in Boston. Some years ago, I created a book about butterflies with children for children in Haiti. It is mostly illustrated with the children's artwork. However, some of the children also researched the different phases of the a butterflies life through photographs. They found some of your beautiful images. At the time it was an in class project, so I didin't think we needed to get permission to print the images. Just recently, someone from the school has contacted me and wants to print the book and make copies for use in Haitian schools! This is very exciting.

I could send you a copy of the document as I have it.

We would love to have your permission to use your photos.

Thank you,
Saskia

4/24/15 - I just found this web site today. Incredible! I live in SE Florida and go out for a bird walk almost every day. I also see some insects and mammals such as squirrels on my walk. I live in an animal/bird sanctuary. Will be looking at this site more often because I have "bookmarked" it. You have indeed made my bird walk more enjoyable because now I can identify some of the birds I see by looking here. Thank you. Karen Frauman

Thank you so much!!! I have just found this site and am truly grateful that it is being kept active in his memory. It is a fabulous resource, such stunning photography, and SOOO helpful to someone who is just learning to identify birds (the Dark-eyed Junco conundrum - never knew there were so many races). I can't wait to explore the other photos and info posted here. :-)
Ann Pettigrew17-Oct-2014 02:11
I think of Bob all the time and miss him a lot. He taught me so much about photographing butterflies and dragonflies.
I think it is great that you keep his PBase site going as it is a wonderful resource. He spoke of his kids often and I am sure you miss him.

Guest 10-Jul-2014 00:28
I wanted to take a moment from my using this site, yet again, to identify butterflies and dragonflies and so on. I found this site last year when I developed a passion for photographing our flying friends. I searched hi and low and none of the sites I tried to use were helpful. None had any easy or straight forward way to find your match. When I found this site I was so relieved! It was a breeze identifying the little creatures I had photographed! This is the only site I use and I think it is just fantastic that you all maintain it in Bob's memory. I hope that you get a lot of satisfaction and good memories knowing that people are using and enjoying the work he did. It's a wonderful tribute and I thank you for doing it!

All the best...

I've been following two Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillars on our parsley plant. Lo and behold they disappeared two days ago. First I thought predators, but then I read your treatise on the stages and discovered that they may have gone off into our garden to pupate!

I hope to use more of his photos and be able to help as many people as I can. Thank you kind sir..... Risinghawk

Sorry to hear of Bob's passing. He was a great photographer. I was hoping to use the images of a Loggerhead Shrike and juvenile Cooper's Hawk of Bob's for my free online Birds of Vancouver Island made 3 years ago.

I'm thinking of having the "Birds of Vancouver Island" published in book form and if you contribute, are you willing to see the book published with no financial rewards? I am not asking for any monies from the venture and it is unlikely that the publishers will made much profit if any. The online version has had less than 3,000 hits in 15 months.

Please return this with your acceptance or rejection.

Dear Family of Bob
I came upon his wonderful work through Pintrest. I am writing an article for a small magazine here in Hockessin, DE about the critical role of native plants in our suburban developments. I am looking for a photo of a bird (one that would live in DE) with a caterpillar in its' beak to feed the babies.

If I can't locate that image maybe I could arrange to use one or two of your caterpillar photos. perhaps you can tell me how to proceed.
Jill Dean 14-Nov-2013 20:27
Bob Moul was my cousin. He was known to me as Bobby. We often enjoyed playing together on my aunt and uncle's farm with many of our cousins. I deeply regret not knowing that Bobby had this wonderful interest. Which he generously, with great skill, shared with a multiude of bird friends. I wish I could have chatted with him about this great love.
Catherine 06-Oct-2013 03:58

I was wondering why Bob hasn't posted anything on BugGuide in quite a while. I had once told Bob that, before I discovered BugGuide, I used to use his site for ID's. I will miss him. What a legacy he has left us.

As Artistic director of Canada Blooms, www.canadablooms.com , I have to choose an image for our festival every year.
With this year's theme, WILD!, I am looking for a wild flower, and came across the trillium (Ontario's flower). We need a very high resolution and was wondering if this is possible. I would also need to know the price to purchase. Thank you

Hey Bob! Small world. I was researching bird photo samples taken with the Canon 300mm 4.0 IS, and found a shot you took at Lake Marburg. I live 5 minutes from the Lake in South Hanover. A lot of my work is taken there. Your work speaks for itself. Congrats on an amazing array of photos. My link is www.photo.net/photos/COUNTRYLAPI . I'm curious, have you used a 1.4x with your 300mm 4.0? I really want I.S., but will miss the detail of the 400mm 5.6L.
Doug Gross 20-Feb-2013 17:31
When I look across the fields near our home and watch harriers or short-eared owls gliding over the landscape, I think of Bob Moul who did so much to promote these open country raptors through his beautiful photography.
I am grateful that his images are still available to enjoy.

I'd like permission to send someone photos of a pair of redheaded woodpeckers who have been at our feeders since 2009. One of them has a very clear double necklace, the other also has 2 but somewhat different. I can't find photos of others with this. I am an artist and like to paint the birds at my feeders. I recently met another artist who has painted for Audabon and USPS stamps and she had not seen this so I'm wondering if it is rare or unusual. They are magnificent birds.
Thank you for any help you can give me.

Very nice photography Bob. We live in "northern Ontario", Iron Bridge which is about 400 miles from the Carolinian forests that we have along the shores of Lake Erie. This is where the Red-bellied lives in Ontario. Two years ago, we had one here all winter long and just this morning (October 10,2012) I saw another male. I'm hoping, along with my wife, that this time he beought a mate!! I've NEVER seen a female. I just read the comments below. I too, am sad to read that Bob's gone.
Dan Watley 20-Sep-2012 12:34
Hi, Bob: You knocked my socks off with your photography, esp. the sequence showing the Black Swallowtail evolution from larva to adult. Stunning, inspirational! I'm retired, a Master Gardener here in Montgomery Co., MD, and soon to start training in an Audubon Naturalist Society program designed to follow the same educational mission as the Master Gardeners, i.e., instill an appreciation of nature in citizens and promote the necessity of eco-awareness in this audience. Stellar visual information such as your photography certain provides inspiration. I'm slowly transitioning from film-era to digital photography, which photographic experience lay dormant for a few years, but now, with more time at my disposal, I can indulge my interests, esepecially photography of insects...there's a whole new, wide world when one is down on one's knees gardening (and photographingI). Thanks for the excellent work you do. Best regards and keep in touch.
CLAUDE 23-Jul-2012 21:36

To the family of Bob Moul:
Thank you for including Mr. Moul's website address in the newspaper obituary. Although I was not familiar with the site while he still continued his amazing work, I have seen some of the published photos in the nature genre publications. Now I will forever be able to put a face and history with the photos. Bob Moul was a gift to us and the creatures he studied. Thanks for the gift of his website to the now enlightened.
DJ Lang 19-Sep-2011 20:08
This is the Best Nature Website ever and Bob's Photo's are so wonderful . I only recently found him and am so saddened to hear he passed away. I am new to Photographing Dragonflies & Damselflies and it is very hard to identify each one. Bob's website helped tremendously. I too hope they keep this site up. If not I know the online feild museums that would truely benefit from his extensive photo's.

Bob's love of his friends and nature will never be forgotten. I grieves me to hear of our loss. He was my mentor and dear friend. We spend about two weeks together in October of 2006 at Codorus State Park photographing a visiting Hudsonian Godwit. He told me he couldn't stay away from the place as long as that bird was there. He was an expert bird photographer when I met him then and his accomplishments since then are unmatched.
Guest 13-Sep-2011 19:23
I'm very sad to report that Bob Moul passed away on Sunday, September 11, 2011. I had the pleasure of birding and photographing with him on a few occasions and he will be missed by not only family and friends, but all those who have viewed his wonderful nature photographs. I hope this site continues to be available as a tribute to Bob's talent and love of nature.
Paul 13-Sep-2011 17:16
So sorry to hear about Bob's passing...wonderful pictures will be missed.
Sami 13-Sep-2011 04:40
Your photos are absolutely beautiful Mr. Moul and you and your wonderful work will be missed greatly. May you rest in God's glorious Kingdom always. My thoughts and prayers are with your precious family in their time of need.

Really enjoyed the BST page! Taking my first try at a cat house and thus far have 8 that have chrysalized. Really looking forward to seeing them emerge - hoping they have not eclosed too late in the year to see them this year!
Christy 28-Aug-2011 21:38
I have always grown dill, and now fennel, as food plants for the Black Swallowtail. I have loads of them! The camera I currently have cannot take good macro/closeup shots. By the time I get a good one, it will be too late ( NOV) to get shots of the eggs,caterpillars this year. But I have of course, loads of chrysalis. Question though, since it is late August here in Illinois, do these need to over winter, or will these emerge and fly south for the winter like monarchs do?
Juanell Seitter 24-Aug-2011 12:57
I just viewed your black swallowtail metamorphasis sequences! How wonderful they are. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and God's handiwork.
Lisa Manne 23-Aug-2011 01:14
What beautiful moth photos, and what a fantastic and helpful resource.
Sue Loft 19-Aug-2011 02:17
Thanks so much for your pictures and info on the black swallowtails. I had 2 beautiful caterpillars on my parsley plant and today only one. They pot is close to lots of other bushes and shrubs. I just wish I could be a quiet observor. Next year I plant rue.....
Sarah DuVal 16-Aug-2011 23:43
Bob, your website is wonderful. I noticed on the dragonfly page comments that a number of people had seen a dragonfly with "rudder-like" markings on the wings and a bluish-white body and wished they had a photo. We see those here in south central Kentucky quite frequently and my husband got a fairly good pic of one this evening. (They light on the ground and are quite skittish). If you'll email me, I'll send the photo to you and send a better one as soon as we get it.
Michelle Sefton 02-Aug-2011 16:33
We recently put in a garden and discovered our parsley is infested with Black Swallowtail caterpillars! We have one chrysalis on a parsley stalk, and one in a tank that we collected and are watching. How long do they stay in the chrysalis before they turn into a butterfly?
Carol Schmitz 31-Jul-2011 23:18
Found you as I googled for Black Swallowtails which are emerging in some numbers in my garden today! And to see you love Dragonflies and birds as well.... I'll be back to enjoy more - and share with my nature-loving friends. Thanks for the stunning pix and great info!
Tammy Olsen 29-Jun-2011 19:15

Robert Frear 28-Jun-2011 02:17
We are enjoying a new found patch of squash-berries (aka- high bush cranberry)in bloom behind our house a ways in central British Colombia. There, we noticed a tiny white flower as well that we didn't the name of;- hence a quest for the name online, where we stumbled on your site. Although we couldn't find that particular flower, we much enjoyed moseying around...
Arthur Thompson 16-Jun-2011 00:46
Bob, I have a picture of a Black Dragonfly that has a neon blue club shaped tail. When in flight the wings have a neon blue shpped pattern on the wings. I have never seen these before and can't find anything like them on the net. I can email you a copy if you give me your email address. Best Regards. Art
Guest 14-Jun-2011 22:03
Hi I just found you on BAMONA. I was downloading some of my butterfly photos and called up some species photos as a reference and there you were. I was reviewing the checklist for my home county and clicked on one of the species listed and brought up the photo with your name. I was curious who you were and taking pictures in my home county. Well, I sorted out that bit of confusion and went and visited your pbase site and have made a very brief scan of your birds of prey, WOW, if you ever have a desire to view bald eagles or white pelicans give me a holler.

Mr.Moul

I love the asiatic dayflower and wanted to know if there is someway you can purchase any of these flowers are can they be replanted from someone else yard. My best friend has them growing in her yard and I would love to plant in mine.What time of the year are they most aboundant,thanks for any info.
AllanTrently 29-Oct-2010 21:51
I thought you may be interested in a possibly viceroy X red-spotted purple hybrid that I photographed in Tennessee. I used your photos of a hybrid to match what I have. Thanks for posting those photo. My photo is not of good quality and the butterfly is a bit worn but I think you can say that it is an atypical red-spotted purple. I would love to know what you think. Thanks very much.

Bob ,these are the best pictures I have seen. They will be most helpful for ID. I am a master gardener in York Co. Pa and give butterfly talks to the public. I may be asking for your help!! I take lots of pictures but I wish I had a lens like you surely have!
I wish I had known about this site before as it is really wonderful. Thanks so much.

lries13-Sep-2010 04:58
Bob,

I often see your fantastic photos on the Butterflies and Moths of North America website. I am applying for a fellowship to enhance the butterfly pages on the Encyclopedia of Life (www.eol.org) and I was wondering if you would be willing to give me permission to download your photos (I don't need high res) and bring them into a database and import them onto the site. In addition to retaining your copyright tag on the actual photo, each time the photo is shown it would identify you as a data partner and give a link to your website.

Sorry to contact your through your guestbook - I couldn't seem to find your email address. If you have questions or want further info - please contact me at lries@umd.edu.

Thanks!

Marsha 09-Sep-2010 13:38
Bob,

My daughter found a black swallowtail caterpillar and took it to her classroom to hopefully watch the metamorphasis into a butterfy. It has now transformed into the pupa stage. My question for you is this----do they do anything with the "food" that they had put in the jar or should they just leave it in there? Is it okay to move---is there a website that shows information on how to "raise" it through the 8 months that it is in pupa form???? Please help anyone.

Thank you, Marsha mknachtigal@gmail.com
Jenn M. 03-Sep-2010 17:59
Your photos are beautiful! I have thoroughly enjoyed them. Thanks for sharing your work!!
Frances 29-Aug-2010 22:05
Thanks for all this good info, it took me back to childhood learning all about the pupa stage etc. Have a few on my parsley plan, sadly one emerged this morning, but appears to have a wing problem, one is ok, the other doesn't look developed and open, does this happen often? Anyway great info. (black swallowtail)
Lo Butterfield 23-Aug-2010 11:59

Thank you for sharing your work, it's incredible!
Wendy N. 18-Aug-2010 20:57
I mis-typed - the caterpiller is now in the cacoon stage. Can I remove it to watch it indoors?
Oh, also, your photos are truly beautiful!
Wendy N. 18-Aug-2010 19:14
Mr. Moul: I have been watching Black Swallowtail caterpillars feed and grow near my house's foundation. Today I found one caterpillar attaching to a white drain pipe. Should I leave the pupae there or can I detatch it to bring inside (in a safe glass environment) to watch it change? And, how long should it's metamorphisis take?
LC 18-Aug-2010 00:44

Very much enjoyed your beautiful gallery, Bob.

I don't know if i can trouble you with a moth identification question? ...I have a simple moth on my site here: http://www.pbase.com/japanese__wanderings/image/108900895
that's in need of a title. Do you happen to know what it is?

thanks much again for the nice gallery,

Hi Bob,
Truly outstanding collection of photographs. I read one comment that indicated you use mostly a 300 F4. Perhaps you can give me some guidance here. I want to move up from the 100-400 IS lens and am debating the merits of a 300 F4 or 2.8, the 400 F5.6 or the 400 DO. Any guidance you can offer would be very helpful, particularly for birds in flight and stationary. Many thanks.

Wonderful, informative web site that I am going to share with my granddaughters. This
summer they raided my parsley patch and I helped them make a habitat for several cats. They were thrilled to have two butterflies emerge. It is late October and I brought the only remaining cat inside to my own created habitat, but the cat is not eating. Is it in diapause? Is there anything I should do for it?
Cheryl L Guffey 22-Oct-2009 16:32
Beautiful photography of my childhood favorite, the Red-Headed Woodpecker! Thankyou for sharing them. I started to think about where had all the red-headed woodpecker's gone, and it led me here. Thankyou for your gift. I too am a photographer here in Tennessee and I have seen maybe a couple of them in our yard in the past 2 years, but growing up near a large wooded area in south central Minnesota, I saw them regularly. God bless your work!

Valerie (Ilinois) 15-Sep-2009 02:55
Your site is beautifuly done and your sharing of teh photosis exceptionally generous. I especially enjoyed the Black Swallowtail instars; they're very useful in determining whether a particular caterpillar I saw on a Queen Anne's Lace was a Black Swallowtail or not. Turns out it wasn't. Are you aware of any caterpillars that like to rest in "closed up" (i.e., post-bloom) Queen Anne's Lace flowers?

Thank you again for the photos.
Guest 12-Sep-2009 00:08

Hi Bob,
I came across your site while looking for dragonfly images to try and ID an emerald I found recently. Though I haven't identified my dragon yet, I was amazed by the quality of the photos on your site and browsed through many of your galleries. Your photos are not only beautiful but inspiring as well...they make me want to run outside with my camera and capture some of the beauty here in my little corner of the world (Ottawa, Canada). Keep up the excellent work, and continue to inspire others to observe and appreciate nature!

Hi Bob,
Wonderful photos thank you so much for sharing them. I collect old nature books (as well as new and love the images and style of them) I live in Manchester, England, but despite being in a city, I get lots of opportunities to explore nature as I live near the Mersey and there is there is a lot of open countryside very nearby. One of my son's uses his photos of natural scenes as inspiration for the background to his animations. All the best, Alison
Guest 14-May-2009 03:53
Hi Bob,
I have been admiring your nature photos. Great pictures! I shoot mainly animals and landscapes. I visit the San Diego Wild Animal Park at least once a month. I agree totally with your views. I fear before long, many of the wonderful animals we have enjoyed during our lifetime will be lost to all the future generations. A sad thought to be sure. Pictures are the last salvation for these wonderful creatures.

Keep up your work, its important.

Best,

Ron Conero

We trust you had a nice Christmas holiday.

A Happy New Year to you.

Hi Bob,
I was just outside with my dog, and there is a giant leopard moth on the cement, just below the siding on our house.
It is Dec.27th. and a very nice day here in Erie. Is it confused? There is no plant life that I can see for it to be able to eat.
Was it under the siding in hibernation? I know nothing about them, but I would hate to see it die.
Will you please send me an answer to the best of your knowledge?

Thanks, Tina

My students and I were in awe of you black swallowtail photos. We are currently raising this type of butterfly and are creating a life cycle wheel based on what we've observed. We are using many photos that we took for this project but would love to use a few of yours. How do we go about getting your permission to do this? Thank you.

April 18-Aug-2008 17:24
Hi Bob, Thank you so much! I observed some caterpillars nesting in my hollyhocks and wanted to know what butterfly they would turn into. One click on your site told me everything! I'll be back many more times as I have planted 4 gardens for butterflies, hummingbirds, bumblebees and other nature to enjoy. I'm also keeping a photo journal of my backyard -- nothing like yours. Thank you again.
Claire 14-Aug-2008 15:56
Your web-site is awesome to view and extremely well done. I found it while "googling" swallowtail life cycle". I am currently keeping my 2nd batch of Black Swallowtail caterpillars in Parsley (which sadly is about to run out), as I recover from back surgery. Never imagined it could be so fascinating. Have friends calling everyday for caterpillar updates. Have one in each of the pre-pupa stages at the moment and have 5 that left the Parsley about a week ago. Am hoping they have found a safe place in/ on a twig to build their chrysalis's. I live in Omaha, NE and have had an over abundance of Yellow Swallowtails and only a very few Blacks, so imagine my surprise when I discovered who's caterpillars I have been nurturing. Next year will be planting lots of Parsley and Fennel to, hopefully, help future generations along.
Aditi 10-Aug-2008 03:03

Your "bio" is very similar to mine. I have just taken up serious nature (mostly bird) photography in my retirement, now that I have time and money for equipment. I share your mission, and daily thank God for evolution. I have always been fascinated by dragonflies and have used your site to identify those whose image I have successfully captured. I would love to learn what lens(s) you use for your dragonflies and butterflies. You can find my images at www.awe-struck.smugmug.com. My thanks and best wishes. Glen Fox (Awe-struck), Ottawa, Canada

Hi Bob,
I'm working on some interpretive panels for a riparian restoration project that we did at a golf course and I was wondering if I could ask you for some help? I was trying to find a few high-quality photographs of Centre County, PA native dragonflies. Do you have any photographs of Centre County natives (or close by) that would inhabit small streams? If so, would you be willing to share a few of them for the panels? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Katie of ClearWater Conservancy
Dan Nihiser02-Mar-2008 20:39
Bob, I was blown away by your galleries, especially your owl images. My wife and I are fledgeling photographers with most of our efforts geared towards all kinds of birds. We have observed owls in the wild but never close enough to get an image worthy of P-base display. I will continue to re-visit your galleries. Thanks for the enjoyment and the ideas.

Such a wonderful array of beautiful photos!They are invaluable to aid us viewers in identifying all kinds of wildlife.It's also refreshing to know he hasn't seen and identified every bird.I've seen a couple of birds that look like the unknown one-but never identified it.It's a treat that he sends them to you for our interest and pleasure.

Thanks for your kind comments on my site. I am particularly flattered after seeing the quality of your work. I am thinking about getting the 300 F4 lens and your shots have convinced me that this lens is quite good in the hands of someone who knows how to use it. I enjoyed looking at your shots.

Hi Bob, Your pictures just keep getting better and better! Love to come over to your galleries and look around.

Guest 19-Jul-2006 18:58
Bob, I love your new home page. Very eye-catching. I am looking at your duskywings hoping to find one like the one I am trying to identify. I find them incredibly difficult, much worse than sparrows ever were!! Ann
Elaine Gregory 14-Jul-2006 15:34
I found your wonderful website trying to find out when the Kaufman Insect guide will be available. I've had it on order thru amazon.com since Nov 2005. I saw thru google that you might still be needing insect pictures for it. I've taken thousands over the last 5 years. I recently retired and have been working on identifying my specimens. I live on 3 acres next to a creek that is too small to be on a map. More land is being lost every day to urban development. I've enjoyed the dragonflies, as well as other insects. If anyone had ever told me I'd be taking pictures of Spiders! let alone thinking some are pretty, I'd had said they were insane, but I even had a black widow as a guest in a insect display cage for a few months. I had a large walking stick and put what looks in your website to be the three legged assassin bug with it thinking it was a male walking stick. Since I read they take 2-3 years to complete their life cycle, it may be awhile, if ever, to see any results.
Annette Oliveira 04-Jul-2006 05:39
Hello Bob,
I came across your webpage while looking to identify a photo of a sphinx moth I took. Your name sounded familiar and your photos are supurb. I am doing a dragonfly survey and joined the NEodes. Are you a member of the group? I am also curious as to whether you are using a Canon film or digital camera? Regards, Annette
Guest 19-Jun-2006 05:50
Geez Bob, I've been on pbase for a long time, and all i can say is WOW your bird photography is the best i've seen. It's nice to see the 300mm F4 + 1.4x teleconverter work so well for you. I own the same setup and get great sports photos out of it. Now you've got me itching to shoot some birds. Keep up the excellent work!
John Dicus17-Jun-2006 21:48
Hey Bob,
Thanks for your recent visit to my galleries and for the comments. I really appreciate how much of a general naturalist you are, which is evident by the way you have organized your galleries, and by the information you've chosen to include with each image. Keep up the great work. I will visit your galleries often. Cheers!
Dana 14-Jun-2006 22:24

Bob, once again you have proven that beauty really is in the details!!! Thanks for providing inspiration through your photographs, your kind comments and words of encouragement, and your open and honest critiques. How many people pass these beautiful butterflies, dragonflies and birds on a regular basis and never stop to enjoy them. Looking at them through our camera lens allows us to relive that beauty over and over again. Kindest regards, Chantal
Guest 27-May-2006 19:44
Thank you very much Bob for the kind words. I am glad you enjoyed the bee gallery. It wasn't until recently I started to save the images using the "save as" option in PSCS2. I tend to save for web... The exif info will be included in the shots. Most of the time I shoot with the Canon 100mm macro + Canon 1.4XIITC and a combo of extension tubes. ISO 200 ..F/11-f/13 ...1/160th-1/200th with the flash set to -1/3rd up to +2 depending on the magnification.

Thank you again for the great comments. Your work is stunning!!!

Hey Bob! I hope you don't mind, but I "used" your great butterfly galleries as a field guide to ID my life Great Spangled Frit, who lit before me in my garden yesterday! When i went online to look for an ID, I asked, "Who has the BEST butterfly pics on the web?" and immediately thought, "Bob Moul!" You rock, Bob! Miss your great wit and hope you're enjoying the summer!

Hi,

I am a Park Ranger for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. I have been searching through your photos and they are excellent! I have been trying to put together a program to educate kids about different types of animals and was hoping to get permission to use some of your photos for the presentation. I have no intentions of selling anything, reproducing, making copies to give out, etc. It is simply a power point presentation on my computer that I carry with me to schools or to nature hikes that we guide for kids to be able to get a little closer look and get them interested in the outdoors. If you are interested in letting me use your photos or would like more information, please email me.

Thanks for your time,

I appreciate your note.
I did an article for a course on wildlife habitat and came across the Audubon quote. It's a great quote that pretty much says it all. I would love to see it more as a reminder to us all. I did not notice it on your site until your note.
I was born and raised in Montgomery Co., Pa.(Southeastern near Philly) but am embarassed to say I don't know where Adams Co. is. It must be Western? Obviously it is beautiful there. Have a great new year and I look forward to seeing more of your awesome pics. I get inspired looking at others work.

Thanks for your butterfly pictures. I used them to try to upgrade my ID skills. Loved your caption "herd of zebras." Where did you tate the puddling picture of the "herd"; I'd love to visit the site. Thanks for sharing your pictures and your arftistry with us.

Hi Bob -
Thanks for the kind words about my butterfly galleries, I see we have some things in common online :)You have some beautiful images here. I was amazed to see your image of the moth that mimics the Azures. I photographed the same moth here in Birmingham, Al back in March. I posted it on the Yahoo butterfly-pix group for help on an ID, and no one seemed to have ever seen or heard of it. About all they could tell me was that it wasn't a butterfly, which I had already guessed due to the lack of antennal clubs. Post me a message back on my guestbook if you can tell me anymore about it. Keep up the good work and thanks again -

Lovely pictures all around, Bob. I hope to do something along the same lines with the many digitalized photos I have on file. I'll be in touch soon to get some pointers, and look forward to more birding trips with you and the other South Mountain folks.
