Those of you who have seen the movie "Silence Of The Lambs", may remember this little fellow. This is the Death's Head Hawk Moth (A. lachesis.). They are often seen raiding Honey Bee hives for their honey.
The moth has an unfortunate reputation, and is associated with folk tales involved in evil and the supernatural.
Seen these guys at Safari Lodges before, but didn't think I would come across one at the coast. Very, very cool to see.
