Hawk Moth!!!

[beenpanced]

I was out back checking my veggies and there was a Hawk Moth, specifically a Five-spotted Hawk Moth, hanging out on my tomato plant. Now I know Hornworms that I've picked off my tomato plant are not good for chams, but what about the moths? From what I understand the Hornworm empties its stomach before going into a cocoon, so would that make the moth edible??

Good thinking there, but i would't take any chances.
