      &#160;I was just sitting outside on my deck and a large moth/butterfl=
y was fluttering around the tops of the trees in my yard. I first thought i=
t was a bird, but then realized it wasn&#39;t. It stayed around the tops of=
 the trees and then flew over out of site. All this time I was trying to ge=
t a photo but just couldn&#39;t. A couple of seconds later it came back, fl=
ew across the yard and over the trees on the opposite side. I stayed out fo=
r about 20 mins. but it didn&#39;t return. It was pale in color but seemed =
to have a darker coloring around the edges of the wings. It was huge, about=
 the size of a luna moth. Anyone have any ideas of what it might have been?
