Geordie and Toby’s Grandpa found this today while he was out. I had never seen one before and looked it up. It looks like a Death’s Head Hawkmoth. I read that they sneak into honey bee hives and eat honey. They get in because they smell like a bee.
Winnie the Pooh should have thought of that.
Update: A friend showed me that this is actually an Imperial Moth. I guess Winnie couldn’t have learned anything useful from this guy after all.
