    Moth? Bug

    This bug got in our house the other day and we've never seen one before. I think it's some type of moth but I couldn't find it's pic in any research I did of Florida Moths. So, I thought maybe someone here would know. It's interesting, that's for sure.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    omg, that's such a cool bug! Even though I hate all bugs

    He's pretty big though, the first thing that came to mind was a manta ray lol

    I have no idea what that is.

    Wow. I'd be keeping that!!

    I think it's a Stealth Bomber Moth.

    We have those around here too. They are odd looking moths. Have you seen one at night time catch thier eyes with a flashlight and their eyes are carzy looking.

    I never seen them around before till about 2 years ago, must be some new cross breed or something. First time I saw one it creeped me out a little...not your everyday moth.
