Just saw this on one of the new columns on our front porch last week...these are 8" columns, my wife measured the wingspan at 6"...if this bugger were any larger he'd need clearance from Ground Control before takoff...

That is beautiful! My son and I watch for these huge moths every year and I normally HATE any type of bug! lol

scotzoidman,

Is that a Lunar Moth?

Scotz my first day at the school I work at I saw a giant one like that on a sign. I was so surprised it was at kid height and no had even spotted it.
