Manduca Moth on Alstroemeria

My mother-in-law found the caterpillar (it's huge, 3 in) on her tomato plant about 5 or 6 months ago and I took it to the preschool for the kids. We talked about the life cycle of the manduca. It turned into a pupa soon after I got it. It morphed into the moth about 3 weeks ago. Cool natural science project for the kids.
