Sorry, I could not resist the pun!

life in and around the garden
I hooked you with that title didn’t I!
This “thing” was making it’s way across my garden table this afternoon.

I mean really, this “thing” is huge!

So I googled about this “thing”
and found out his name.
Wild Saturniid Silk Moth
Cecropia!
And then I remembered this visitor I had back in July.

Once a week Lucy has been riding, and she has bonded with this horse,
Flame…
Flame is quiet and reliable–perfect for a new rider.
Working on the deal…and Rocky might come with.
He is tall, dark, and overweight.
We do not judge!
First photo taken with my “new”–hand me down phone from my husband.
This is going to be very handy!
