After a very rough couple of days when I felt like giving up, I was sent a gift, a sign letting me know all would be well. I had never seen a luna moth before in person. I had seen pictures but they really don't show the magic of actually being in the presense of one.
Yesterday ny husband had gone outside and immediately came back to get me and my camera. He wanted to show me something on the front lawn. There is was. Such a mystical sight. I thought to myself, could it be a fairy? The wings were so large and so beautiful. I was so excited but also sad because I could tell this beautiful creature was going to die. His wings were tattered and he couldn't fly anymore. I didn't want to leave him out in the awful windy damp weather so I brought him inside and placed him in a large container with some grass for bedding. I had hoped he would dry up and i could release him tomorrow. Well tomorrow came and he had died over night. I now have him in my special room where others can come and see his beauty. I truly feel this was a gift and it is very meaningful that my husband found it and shared it with me. I hope you enjoy the pictures. From what I have read about Luna Moths it is very rare to find one because they only live a week and are usually out at night. Love and Light Anne
