Nature n Reverse

First part of April actually it was April 1st, Pop came and got me to come have a look at this beauty. She was hanging out on the side of his shed. So, of course the nature lover I am I had to start taking pictures. So, I did I took a lot of them of her. I would come out and check on her she hung out over night. The next morning I checked her first thing and she was gone from the wall. (Don't forget any of the pictures you can click on and blow them up) Pose for your close up
I have never seen one of these before...anybody know what they are it's big appx 5"
But, I found her on the ground...not doing well...and several birds after her...then I noticed
all of these where she had been on the wall...wow, I wouldn't have bother her..she was in labor for crying out loud and I had a camera up her butt...dammit how rude. She had her eggs then laid down to die...how sad...I tried to keep her safe..but she disappeared!
but it didn't stop me from taking pictures every day...and I did...
as you can see they change..but I won't make you suffer with all 200 pictures ;-)
I can tell it's getting close...although this is my first moth labor witnessing!
They were born today 4-27 ...what ever they are
they are crawling up the wall..some are already at the top...
you got to blow this up and see how weird looking it is this dude tripled his size when he fell off the wall...don't worry I put him back on the wall.They reacted to me ... investigating them...they weren't happy...

I didn't touch them they might sting me

I am guessing they all grow up to be like mom...or the dad...

I enjoyed watching the nature process...was worried a bird would eat the eggs..now I am worried something is going to eat these little babies...but it's out of my control, but I did enjoy it :-)
Tuesday update they are still going up the wall. If they change their appearance on the wall, fear not I will make ya'll suffer some more with the updated pictures :-)
