Actually they are better smashed up and mixed with lime or mango and used as a topping on snow cones. Just saying.

I have seen a few giant moths down south. Not to many around here. They are beautiful to see.

We had a couple just like the pic on our porch last night, when I came back to take a pic they had flown off. They were easily hand sized.

That little bugger looked big, but then you used the TGLB for comparison and its HUGE!! Beautiful moth, awesome pictures, thanks for sharing it with us! That is definitely a cool bug.

I caught a moth at work once that was flopping all over the ground. I thought it was a wounded pigeon. The body of it was big as my fist and the wingspan was 10" across. I think it was too big to take flight. I put it in a 5 gallon bucket and released it outside.

That's beautiful! I've never seen a moth like that before. I've held a bright green one a little smaller than my palm, though. The kids thought I was crazy.
