Found this little guy/gal on the front porch. Sure is pretty!!

Any ideas what it is?? ( other than a moth!) LOL

Not sure, but it looks like it's making a wish

That or it's kicked back and relaxing........

He is pretty. Good thing you're not a collector or he'd been stuck with a needle right now.

I looked in my bug book but I couldn't find him.

Mac....wow, thanks...it was beautifull to see. We seem to have many of them around here, I guess due to the woods. Hmmm...either way....it was pretty!

I agree with Mac, it's a polyphemus moth, a silk worm moth. It's partially covering its eye spots. Cool!
