HeadExam 1,783 #1 Posted March 12, 2016 It is a Moth, and it is green, does anyone know what it is? I know what it is, just wondered if these are over your way. They only live a week and have no mouth.We get these guys from time to time, and when they fly, their lower wings hang down like legs and they look like Tinkerbell. My wife had never seen one and when it appeared on the back porch last light fluttering around the light looking like Tinkerbell, she went off her rocker, especially after I told her it was Tinkerbell and that we were having a tryst. In all fairness her eyes are worse than mine, and her sense of humor has been waning of lately as well, lol 1 ranger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wristpin 400 #9 Posted March 12, 2016 Snappede this chap in my sister-in-law's garden a couple of years ago. Believe it to be the caterpillar of an elephant hawk moth. 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
