Polyphemus Moth [probably a female] from a couple of years ago on Sunshine Coast. Over 4" across. Now I leave the outside lights on all night! You never know what's going to show up. See 10 lined beetle post from a couple of months ago!  moth2 by BirderBert, on Flickr |

They are not uncommon but it's surprising how few people have actually seen one. This was my first and only time

A Hummingbird Moth! Cool! It's been 30 years since I last saw one of these. Always wanted to get pics of one feeding on flowers

I actually saw the larva of a White-Lined Sphinx Moth for the first time a couple weeks ago. Very cool.
