Summertime can bring out some of the wackiest creatures.

One Odenton resident recently posted this YouTube video of a massive moth on the steps near his apartment. I must say, it's one of the largest I've ever seen, and very unique in color.

The YouTube user, who calls himself "modiby" refers to the orange-and-white spotted insect as a Royal Walnut Moth, and it is supposedly one of the largest species north of Mexico.

What other weird bugs have you seen this summer in the area?
