My dad and i just saw a hummingbird moth outside in Wauwatosa Wisconsin. At first, we thought it was a bee of some sort, then my dad thought it was a freaky species of actual hummingbird. We was wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. We looked it up and saw it was a moth. My dad said he's been here on earth for 47 summers, and he ain't never seen one o' dem. I, enjoying my 12th summer, got to see it and identify it wit' me pappy, who I often call 'Big Penguin', because he sheltered me frum da cold when I was but an egg. :)
Cool moth. Cool planet.
