M'lady, it is I, White-breasted Nuthatch. I seek the lasting comfort of a wife and mother with whom to spend the rest of my days. Your alabaster breast and nasal call send my feathers aflutter. I wish nothing more than to feed you as you tend to our nest

Bring out your dead, it's Common Green Bottle Fly! (JK...well, sorta) Looking for the mesmerizing flash patterns of a fertile female fluttering her wings in the sun. I'm a lean, green, foot-tapping machine looking for love. I'll be by the roadkill

Hi, um, I'm Virgin Tiger Moth. I'm new to this, sorry. I sent out some pheromones, I hope they're ok. Oh! Was that an ultrasonic response? Nice, well, here's a click back at you. What, show me some hind wing? Oh, ok. Hmm, you smell toxic. Rawr!

Check me out, I'm Peacock Fly! Do you like my wings? I like your wings. Let's dance! Do you think my wings look like a jumping spider? I'm not sure either. Want to head over to those dead hardwoods and lay some eggs?

Hi, I'm Redpoll. I used to be called Common, but we settled our differences with the Hoaries and the Lessers. I'm a serial monogamist looking for a breeding season hook up. Sing me a song, show me how you can fly and let's have an Arctic summer fling

Hey, I'm White-banded Toothed Carpet. They call me Common in Europe, but I go by Toothed here in NA in homage to my wing fang tattoos. I just crawled out from under the bedstraw and am looking for a good time. Find me at the bright lights tonight

Psst...it's Maple Spanworm Moth...shhh. I'm in disguise. I used to have that great twig costume, but I outgrew it. Check out my dead leaf get up though. Pretty cool, right? Anyway, how about we mate before winter comes? I'll be in hiding at the hardwoods

Hello, I'm Hermit Thrush. I'm back for the breeding season and looking for a man who knows how to sing for his territory! I like to be chased in circles a bit, but at heart I am an introvert who just wants to cozy up on my clutch on the forest floor

Hi there, I'm Northern Azure! Spring has sprung, and I can finally spread my wings as a butterfly! (Being tended by ants as a caterpillar is cool and all, but this feels good) I've only got a day or so left, so let's hook up! Find me at the Black Cherry

Hello, I'm Zebra Jumping Spider, and I want a guy who loves to dance! You better know how to wave your pedipalps and bounce that abdomen if you want to end up as my mate rather than my lunch. Looking for something casual, no webs attached

I am European Hornet. ALL HAIL THE QUEEN! Do not fear me. My ancestors came here from Eurasia 200 years ago, and this is our home now too. I will take you to my queen for the royal love making. What is that? You like my stripes? Oh my, shh come with me

Hey hey, it's Spotted Cucumber Beetle. I'm no ladybug, but I am a lady and you know what we like. You better practice your antennal stroking, cause no stroke means no poke (if you know, you know). I don't take just any nuptial gift, so bring your A game

Hi, I'm Black Firefly. I know what you're thinking: "Show me your glow!" Sorry, I'm not that kinda firefly. I don't even like the dark! I'm looking for someone with fragrant pheromones, who likes hanging out in low-lying plants after sunrise. Anyone?

Hey, I'm Sooty-winged Chalcoela. Let's just get this out of the way now, I'm a meat eater. No, I didn't singe my wings on the BBQ, those are just my markings. I like my meat tender & rare. Paper wasp larvae are my thing. If that's your thing too, call me

Yo, I'm White-dotted Prominent, but I go by Rough. I love punk rock and I live for the night! I usually hang out at the Oak with the other members of the White-spot gang, but you might see me at some of the other trees. Looking for a good time

Hi, um...I'm Grape Leaffolder Moth. What can I say about myself? Let's see...I'm a day flyer. I like leaf origami. I'm a big fan of a few different leaves, especially grape, red bud and evening primrose, they fold real nice. Um...well, that's me I guess!

I am Raven. Together, we will rule over this realm. I will provide for our family with food and safety. We will have many babies over the course of our long lives. Watch as I perform feats of daring acrobatics and cunning intellect. I am Raven.

Gobble gobble, I'm Wild Turkey y'all! I'm gonna be straight with you, I like a gobbler who knows how to strut with tail feathers spread, booms with the best and spits in the eye of any competition. I won't say no to a caruncle, but that snood better pop!

Why hello, I'm Virginia Creeper Sphinx Moth, but call me Virginia. Did you smell my pheromones? Then you've come to the right place. They don't call me a hornworm for nothing (actually it's because I have an anal horn as a caterpillar, but I digress)

I'm Yellow-fringed dolichomia moth. Where does the dolichomia come from? It's an old Genus name of mine that seems to have stuck (Most people call me Hypsopygia olinalis these days). I'm looking for a fellow yoga nut with a taste for oak leaves. DMs only

Hi, I'm Dryad's Saddle. Despite my name, no, tree nymphs do not perch on me. I'm looking for a strong wind to carry my spores over to that hardwood stump over there. Only here for spring. I'm edible when fresh, so, once this wind comes, dig in

Hey hey, I'm Wedgling Moth. Maybe you've seen me around the woodland at night? Looking for someone who shares my love for the crisp, acidic taste of wood-sorrel. I'll be around as long as it stays warm, so look me up

Hey, I'm Dark-eyed Junco. I just came up for the summer (I have a winter place down south) and am loving the conifers here. I'm thinking of heading further north for a bit, but might stay longer if I meet the right bird. Want to grab some seeds together?
