Today I was working on my computer (rescue work), and Tom was doing yard work outside. He texted me that I needed to come outside and take photos of a moth. When I went outside, I asked him where it was, and he pointed toward the brick wall next to our front gate. I kept looking for it, but all I saw were some leaves caught on the brick.
Now I’m convinced they’re laughing because I don’t know they’re always watching me from the trees.
The Pandora sphinx moth (Eumorpha pandorus), also called the pandorus sphinx moth, is a North American moth in the family Sphingidae.
That is gorgeous.
I would never have even noticed him if Tom hadn’t pointed him out. I wonder how many other “leaf” twigs I’ve seen.
Really cool. That’s some seriously good camouflage going on there.
