Very cool! Is this the first time that this has been filmed between these two species? Like addictedcountryman, Im curious about whether or not I will see this video on tv. Any verdict?

Yes, this is the first the ghost orchid and giant sphinx moth have been video taped. It is also the very first time ever this pair has been seen before. No one else besides my wife and I have ever seen this happen live in the wild. I have no clue whether this will ever make it to tv....sure would be cool.

That was one awesome video, even my husband was pretty impressed with it and he's not into orchids like I am! I hope it gets aired for you somewhere

I have updated my site a little more. The culturing at home page has been updated, I thought you all might like to read it.
