Was absolutely floored by this huge, gorgeous Banded Sphinx moth (Eumorpha fasciatus) today. I feel like they're so, so rare to see, I NEVER spot them. It was an honor to get to watch this very cool friend for a while.

Also I had to lay down in a wet ant bed and got bitten all over for these photos, so please, enjoy.
