Have you ever heard of this moth?
I ran across an image of the Madagascan Moon Moth while I was searching
for the Luna Moth (do you remember that painting?).
It's wingspan can be up to 8 inches, which was pretty impressive to me,

This Moon Moth is...
* native to rain forests of Madagascar
* one of the world's largest silk moths
* only lives for about 4 or 5 days
* endangered
* bred in captivity
* also called Comet moth (Argema mittrei)
Pretty neat huh?
The verse in Proverbs 31 that talks about beauty being fleeting comes to mind...
