Turn your volume down, unless you like Laurie Berkner :)

I found this 'pod' chrysalis in March when we were doing some yard work, Reagan and I scooped it up and put it in our 'bug jar'.

It's grown, wormed, squirmed and rocked out to Laurie Berkner.

Last night she emerged.

I thought it would be a Luna moth, but it's a Sphinx Moth, I'm not sure if this species has a mouth. I've read some do and some don't. I hope she makes it through the day which she'll remain dormant for. I guess the sun turn a 'switch' off and they are motionless during the sunlight. It'll be interesting to see if she starts to stir tonight, if so I'll let her go. That was a fun experiment and the girls enjoyed it, creepy but fun!
