This morning
I was in the garden
picking green beans
As big drops began to fall
I picked a little faster
trying to beat the rain
Pulling back a few leaves
I noticed a small face
looking back at me
Surprised
I thought Humming Bird
But on closer inspection
I found it to be
a VERY BIG moth
And so be warned
You just never know what can be lurking
in a green bean patch
Quite handsome, isn't it?I tried looking it up in my insects guide, but had no luck finding it. Does anybody have any idea what kind of moth this is? It had a hooked face, big black protruding eyes on the side of its head, and measured a whopping 2+ inches. (This was a beefy moth even though he's most likely a vegetarian!)
