Can
you spot the giant moth in this picture?
It’s a Black Witch Moth. We don’t see them every year. Last one was 2017.
A male. Females look a little different. In Central American cultures it’s historically considered a bad omen, even a harbinger of death if it flies into your house. In Spanish, it’s known as Mariposa de la Muerte. Death Butterfly. Here, we just think it’s cool. It’s not quite as big as my hand, but still, that’s a pretty big moth!
