This video was shot May 17, 2008 by myself in Big Cypress National Preserve. You can visit GhostOrchid.info for more information. The website is being regularly updated. I hope you enjoy!
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 incredible. Ghost orchids are so fascinating, especially that variety. Congratulations on you success capturing that on film. You will be famous!!!
