Default Ahhhh!

In this state of NH we have genetically altered moths or something. Last Summer I made a post of a gigantic moth that was at my bedroom window. See attachment.

No big deal.










Until I just looked out the window and SAW ONE THAT WAS PROBABLY TWICE AS BIG :jawdrop:

I was unable to snap a photo, but I'm shining a light out the window in hopes of attracting the bitch.

It's the size of a goddamn small bird for crying outloud.

Its called a Miller moth or a miller and are rather common, I used to see them all the time in Nebraska and Montana.

Reminds me of the desert spiders in the middle east...there's always a bigger form of something somewhere else.

AcuraFanatic, check that Amp thread, is that the amp you have?

Not the same. :happysad:
