Nature Done Wright

Several folks correctly ID'd this moth as a Polyphemus Moth (Antheraea polyphemus). Great to see so many folks interested in moths. (Congrats to all who provided the right ID, and thanks agian to Doug Morel for the photo.)

The Polyphemus Moth a giant silk moth, with a wing span of up to 6 inches.

More on the moth here.

I hope to write more about local moths on this blog as time allows.
