freaky big caterpillar!

a week ago i found a caterpillar as big as my index finger!

Photobucket

thanks to the folks over in a gardening community i frequent, its been identified as a luna moth caterpillar. they regularly grow 2.5 to 3 inches long! i only wish i could have seen it as the pretty moth it turns into instead of the gigantic caterpillar!
