I found this big guy on my storage building in my back yard this morning. He is over 4" long. Anyone know what he is?

That is pretty cool. It's kind of manta ray shaped or something.

If he would have been 4 foot long I would have ran inside and called the news. Would have been cool to discover the largest moth in the world.

Dude, that's awesome! Way more exotic looking than anything I've found.

I think we should have an "Adventure thread" dedicated to photos our members have taken that are out of the norm. From strange insects to once in a lifetime sceneries or occurrences. Especially since Summer is coming up, as one mentioned.
