Elephant Hawk-Moth (caterpillar-nymph-moth)
I found this caterpillar last year (Sep 4th, picture above) in my
garden. When I did some digging in May this year I found the nymph (May 10th, picture left) about 3 meters from where I had seen the caterpillar. According to advices over the internet, I kept the nymph in a glass inside the house. The full butterfly evolved on June 10th. I was surprised by its beauty. I had leaned some sticks into the glass before, so that it could climb up. It rested on the hazel-stick the whole day and flew away at night.
