Answer to "What can this be..."

Jocelyn Dixon was right!

It is a moth!

A Carolina sphinx. :)



My Dad found this moth at his work and he brought it home in two styrofoam cups. We dumped it in to a gallon jar, it landed on the bottom of the jar. My Mom looked up the moth on the internet, and found it to be a "Carolina Sphinx Moth". As a caterpillar this moth was a "Tobacco" or "Tomato Horn Worm." The night we captured the moth we set it on our dining room table, the room was pretty dark. I past or came in to the dining room and saw it was flying about! Here is a picture. The lighting was not good for the action setting, so the flash makes it a little hard to see.



We let the moth go the next day. :)


In Christ, Bethany
