    I'm no naturalist, but it seems like that moth would be an easy target for moth-lovin' birds, unless his camo was looking like something that tasted horrible.

    I dunno what God's plan was for this guy's camo- perhaps it was so that us folk who appreciate His designs would post pics on the internet.

    ...and btw all you smart-aleks, the shingle isn't on my house. Pbltz.

    Thank you for posting the info on the moth. I didn't realize that the catapillar is something we see here all the time. I've never seen the moth though...really neat. BTW, we call the catapillars 'wolly boogers'. I don't know why..it just sorta suits
