I'm not a squeamish man at all, or one given to irrational fears, but moths scare the bejaysus out of me.

It has to hang out somewhere in the day, and honeysuckle is its main food plant.Random thought. Anyone know why elephant moths are pink if they fly at night? Seems a strange evolutionary trait
Oh good godMe too, the only thing that gives me the creeps. Couple of weeks back early evening I was chatting to one of the waste guys at work, something landed on his wheelie bin between us. Both of us thought it was bird at first, must have been 7-9" in width, I took a closer look...............and bolted..........ruined my weekend, I googled it up and couldn't stop thinking about it. D.i.s.g.u.s.t.i.n.g.

I have a pic somewhere (probably also for the best that I can't find it) of one on Mr Hop's jeans in the fly areaFor those that find them creepy... I've got a picture somewhere of an Elephant Hawk Moth sitting on my nose. You're lucky that I can't remember where it is. Most hawk moths are rather docile in the daytime. In order to see the 'eyes' of the Eyed Hawk Moth, you have to go out of your way to annoy it.
