Bedstraw Hawk-Moth or Gallium Sphinx

Lucky to have a friendly farmer and a private garden!

I love this caterpillar.

Wow

Woooooooow !

Truly amazing shot !!! love it

What can I say ? - such a wonderful photo of a strikingly good-looking caty. I saw your other pics too- absolutely gorgeous and thanks to the farmer.
My husband has refused to cut all the grass in our fairly steep backyard for this very reason - we've had so much wildlife (moths, butterflies,echidnas,etc) since we let the grass grow wild - I am just a little concerned about snakes especially because of our dog, but we haven't seen any in all these years..
well done, bayucca

beautiful and great shot!

Great photo!...as usual! Thought you would like to know I had a rothchildia lebeau in my hand 20 minutes ago. No camera but great experience with my 3 1/2 year old daughter who was AMAZED!

:-) Great deal with the farmer!

My pins are always exact!
Here are some more from the smae place I call it my private butterfly place. The farmer had let grow all meadows for me!
