If you didn't already know (because how could telegram lucahyou not?), July 22-July 30 is National Moth Week.

According to the week's official Twitter page, National Moth Week is "a worldwide citizen science project celebrating the beauty & biodiversity of moths."

If you've always thought that moths were more annoying than beautiful, think again. Users have been posting photos of the flying beauties in celebration under the hashtag #NationalMothWeek, and they are a long way away from the fluttering gray pests that hang out by your campfire. These moths look more like fuzzy butterflies than anything else.
