If I see it, I’m going to draw it. It’s always just a matter of when. I spotted this Moth on Sunday. I love spotting random insects when I’m out and about. It’s a reminder that we need to take the time to slow down to appreciate the small things in life…

Something different today…
I love nature and wildlife. The greater death’s head hawkmoth or bee robber, Acherontia lachesis is a large, up to 13 cm wingspan, sphingid moth.
The moth is characterised by its human skull like pattern on the head.
