Description

this littlen sucker was munching on my purple datura...it's actually sitting on the end of the flower in the photo. it ate several leaves and some of the flower. I kinda monitored it throughout the day. it basically just sat there. if you know about datura it is used in some south American shamanistic rituals for spiritual awakening. i'm sure this little guy was 'trippin'...besides the horn check out the 3 knarly looking claws on the lower right of it. it is beautiful but I don't like it ate my datura....better it go eat someones' matoes...lol have a happy day/nite...try to laugh...btw the frame is of a tiled photo I took of one of my dahlias...a certain online store advertised and pictured it as a 'blue' and I mean blue...dahlia...does that look blue to you??? anyway I since discovered there is no true blue dahlia in existence according to the internet.... ***chills and thrills***
