My husband found this beauty, but
was kind enough to let me hog the camera and take credit for displaying this
chance sighting.

Life just got a whole lot Bigger!
"Grab your camera and SNAP Baby SNAP"
is exactly what I did. Not knowing if it would flutter away
quickly or not, I snapped like nobody's business! This Robin Moth
displayed itself nearby my barn for the remainder of the day, but alas,
the following day was gone. It may look puny here, but it's wing
span is between six and seven inches, making it North America's largest
moth.
