I saw a beautiful moth outside my door yesterday. The moth was a beautiful tan, about 4 inches, and had "eyes" on the wings. This moth clung beside the door all day and night. How I wished I'd taken a picture or at least sketched it for it is hard to identify from memory. I thought it would be there in the afternoon when it was more convenient for me. This is a lesson for me that next time I will capture these nature opportunities.
In my internet search, I found out that Albuquerque is besieged with Miller's moths which are huge like my moth. These moths have come down from the mountains looking for water.
Have you had a similar experience when you thought that nature would wait on you and you didn't record wildlife or plant life?
