photo a week...












Look at the size of this thing!! It is a giant moth of some kind.

Especially for Carla and Sandy..in our photo a week group.

I saw it on the 'net a few days ago and knew I had to post it for you girls... because you love bugs and things.... I have no idea what kind it is or where I even found it.... ...just brought it home to show you....

We stumbled across a place in Australia where there were cabinets full of specimens just like these, along with butterflies, beetles etc. A lifetime's collection, all brought back from travels to the tropics. Hard to comprehend anything as magnificent as this exists. x
