This is a video of doctor of evolutionary biology ChuckDarwin (I guess he was cryogenically frozen?) discussing the extra ocelli (Latin: little eyes) some insects have, and their purpose. According to research, the simple eyes only gather information about light and dark, and help flying insects maintain their orientation to

This is a video from Youtuber Ant Lab (but these are moths!) of seven different species of moth taking flight filmed in 6,000FPS ultra slow motion. Glorious, aren’t they? The species in order in case you’re not a lepidopterist and know already: 00:00 – Rosy maple moth, 01:01 – Polyphemus
