Submitted by: ozcomomoths
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: This yellow-striped army worm moth decided to lay it's eggs on my storm window glass. It did this for about 25 minutes. I went in and out the door but it didn't budge. The eggs didn't hatch and dried up. I took a short video of it laying eggs. Such fun!
