A beautiful visitor.....

While I was outside today looking over my flowers, I noticed a beautiful insect.  I took a picture of it and came in and looked it up on the internet.  It turns out to be a moth.  His real name is "Ailanthus Webworm Moth".    They are native to South Florida and the American tropics but migrate north each year.  They cannot survive a cold winter so he won't be around here for very long.  God is certainly a God of variety!  Everything in His creation is so beautiful and colorful!
  I'm glad Mr. Moth stopped by for a visit at "our farm."
