I feel we are so fortunate that there are passionate people out there willing to not only capture but also share these wonderful feats of nature that many of us would never have known about. The cinematography is truly stunning considering when these little caterpillars are born they are so incredibly tiny (5-10mm x 0.5mm) plus it takes a lot of patience to actually capture the moment when they moult.

Honestly this is almost too good to be true and I love it. This is footage worthy of being featured in some documentaries on National Geographic or BBC. Speaking from Poland as well, excellent job.

I remembered this film but not the title -I searched and searched anf found it! So worth it! Thank you so much for posting this, Gabriella

In my opinion, this species is one of nature's most profound examples of the beauty it offers!!! Luna moths are the rare gems of the winged insect world, closely partnered by some mantis species... Really amazing!!!!

I've been fortunate enough in my lifetime to watch a secropia unfurl its wings. Sat and watched for what seemed like forever. What a beautiful creature with no mouth to eat, only to reproduce and die.

I truly believe that the uglier or creepier looking the caterpillar looks the complete opposite happens when it turns into a moth or butterfly 😊

Stunning camera work! I love Luna moths. I had one on my back door for an entire day once...so beautiful. And I have seen those little hard brown shell like things they were in during the transformation, but didn't know what they were. Thank you for this!

Your camera quality is so freaking good

The level of detail you're able to capture is astounding!

Thank you for your work and this realisation of your vision. Cheers, D.

Luna moths have always been my favorite group of moths.

Spectacular! Thank you Adam for filming this and allowing Nature to tell her own mesmerizing story. The birdsong and absence of human narration added to the unfolding beauty and magic.

Really enjoy watching your moth metamorphosis videos! Telling others about them. Perhaps you can share with the viewer: Your camera and basic settings would be good to learn about. Also, if possible the scientific names of the food plants for each moth. And their territorial distribution. Of course I can research such things on the internet, but I’m sure all your viewers would appreciate learning directly from the presentation. Thank you so much for all the amazing work you’re doing!

The best photography I've watched in a long while - enthralling to watch all the stages. Thank you for your patience and capturing wonderful pictures. I ignored the rooster after a short while because it was so amazing. So cute too, their little orange sucker feet. They almost reminded me of Sesame Street characters! I love that they instinctively develop into each stage, releasing themselves and checking the old skin is gone. If only us humans could be so intuitive!!

I'd give this more than 1 thumbs up if I could, if for nothing more than the amount of patience it required to make this. Just amazing to see one of God's creations in such fantastic detail. It is a tiny miracle how a catapillar is completely transformed inside its cocoon from an ever hungry grub to such a beautiful winged bug!

Every time I watch these instantly mothra's song from godzilla plays in my head as if I'm watching mothra getting prepared to fight as she is crawling out of her cocoon and spreads her wings ready to fly.

Hermoso, perfecto, magnífico, y maravilloso proceso.
