What? Is this Texas?

I was tidying up the deck just now because we are leaving Wiser Times later today. I happened upon this huge moth*. Biggest one I've ever seen! I thought for a moment I was in Texas.



P.S. My irises finally came out -- on the day we're leaving!

Yikes. I draw the line at bugs with fur....

Ick - furry bugs are pretty gross, especially when you don't even need a magnifying glass to see the fuzz. It would have made a cuter butterfly.
