Sh*teHawk Moth
Tonight I pootled down to the bottom of my garden, with only a
garden flare for light ( batteries have run out in the torch ), in my ongoing battle with critters eating my French Beans. As I turned over the bean leaves in the light of the flare, looking for whatever is chewing them, I was squirted twice, as if by a water pistol, once on the arm, once on the side of the face. Somewhat perturbed by something having a go at me in the dark in the spooky depths of my garden I grabbed the flare, stood up and looked around, only to see a large ( 4-5") moth hovering 6 feet away, facing straight at me. Any Lepidopterists out there who can explain to me why this cheeky beggar p***ed all over me??? Such a lot of pee for such a relatively small creature too........ Andy |
