Just thought i would share a few pics of a visitor we had at my work last night....stunned a few of us because we havent seen on this big before....the shots are taken from my cell phone with no flash because they don't allow cameras at my work.




i wanted to show the size....he started to raise his wing when i took the shot...if you fold them down you would get another inch of wing span .


thanks for looking

That's a fair sized moth. Looks like one of these. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyalophora_cecropia

Nice catch. Looks massive...

Thanks, being the worlds biggest sufferer of Mottephobia, the hairs on the back of my neck are doing overtime. That beasty will would see me move country

lol, that's tine....I found one at work one time that had died with it's wings spread.....this thing had a 19.5 inch wingspan! I bet he could get some massive lift out of those things!

I bet that thing could eat a pair of socks in a single sitting
