[quote="mellielong"] Oh, and I saw an Abbott's Sphinx Moth at Grandma's in WV. They're super freaky and look like they should be a Halloween decoration.

Here's the Abbott's Sphinx Moth from April 2011 (many cameras ago):

Oh I want some!! It looks like an alien fighter jet made of the paper that wasps make with a little lobster tail. I'm off to google this thing.

"My work is loving the world. Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird — equal seekers of sweetness. Here the clam deep in the speckled sand. Are my boots old? Is my coat torn? Am I no longer young, and still not half-perfect? Let me keep my mind on what matters, which is my work which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished." — Mary Oliver, from Messenger
