The mysterious visitor

I did a little research about the moth that visited us on my birthday. It's a pretty interesting character! Even it's name is unusual; commonly called Death's-head Hawkmoth. It's the largest moth in the region and it has some other amazing features.


This moth is tough! It lives by raiding beehives! You can read all about it here: Death's-head Hawkmoth
