One
of the coolest things I've noticed about Nature, (especially lately) is
that you never know how cool a creature is till it lets you get up close and
personal. About a 5 inch wing span. I thought this was one of the biggest moths
that I had ever witnessed, but for the life of me, I couldn't get passed the proboscis. That is that little "party noisemaker" looking thingy that it uses to sip the nectar from flowers. I had to know what this little flyer was...
( Thanks Google) ..lol
The plant is Point Sal Purple Sage (not native to Arizona) and
the Beauty that I got to take a picture of is a Hummingbird Moth. Ha! Who
knew!! I certainly didn't...What a gift to witness so many amazing forms of
life! 5/28/2017
