Elephant

Lean mean eating machines! 

The elephant hawkmoth cats were really going for it by the lake at the AOG's today frantically chewing the rosebay willowherb leaves in an effort to get the gold before they pupated for the winter! Though now not so lean as she has put on a huge amount of weight in the competition and not so mean as the snakelike eyes are only a deterrent to predators when threatened.

The whole team, having been in training these last few days were settling down for the long haul to munch and chew as much as they possibly could but Ella here just had the edge and was completely focused on her end objective of getting thro' the entire plant before the whistle! Go Ella!!
