This huge (about 3" across) moth got into my house one night and furiously flapped around for awhile before settling on, of all places, the box my camera came in. I took a few impromptu photos and then carefully cupped the moth in my hands and released it outdoors. It left dark dusty smudges on me. What a beautiful creature to come calling - but I could imagine this dark thing flapping madly about might be mistaken for a bat, and scare the shit out of some folks. |
