I had a Pandora Sphinx on my balcony many years ago. As is my habit, I took a picture and then looked it up. The neatest caterpillars I ever saw were on same balcony, once, two parsley swallowtails! They were on..um...my parsley. I was idly gazing over it, when one stalk fell over. Naturally, I investigated. Way cool! Very psychedelic. I should scan that slide onto something digital.
Moths very often survive through the efficacy of their camoflage. It certainly isn't because of their brainworks! The animals will teach us everything that we have the senses to perceive.
