Crimson-speckled flunkey (Utetheisa pulchella) crimson-speckled footman, or crimson-speckled moth. Birds don’t like them as the caterpillars accumulate a large amount of alkaloids, toxic & unpalatable to birds. Which probably accounts for the colors, a warning sign.

I don't think people are giving the SNL costume department its propers.

Every time there's an animal or even mineral costume, they've been absolutely nailing it and with less than a week to do it.

Barn swallow (Hirundo rustica), found throughout N. America,Europe, Asia, and Africa. They’re a natural form of pest control. Estimates suggest that they can consume around 60 insects per hour, including lots of mosquitoes 🦟 #birds #nature #ecology #NotMyPersonalPhoto #photography #biology #wildlife

A decade-long effort to build a machine to unlock the promise of nuclear fusion fell victim to budget constraints and competing science, and was shut down the day it was dedicated. It was never turned on.
