Gather & Grow – John Abbot, The Naturalist
John Abbot was a renowned naturalist who produced exquisite watercolors of Georgia’s flora and fauna. His work, which predates John James Audubon’s, is now prized worldwide. Abbot documented the region’s butterfly and moth faunas and their interactions with native plants. Two species of moths, Oiketicus abbotii and Sphecodina abbottii, bear his name in recognition of his contributions.
