Found a juvenile Promethia moth on the front porch tonight (yes, it will grow larger in the next week according to the websites). This is a male. Supposedly they're rare as they only live for a week at the end of June and are never found in daylight. We reckon this one must have been attracted to the porch light last night and never left...
Thought it was pretty cool, never saw a moth the size of a bird before.

Yeah, they used to be all over the Ohio/Penn/NY area I don't think they are endangered.
Found several as a kid. Nifty critters.

Wow, that thing is huge!

Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Why does this thing remind me of the old animated show, "The Tick"? Did you name it Arthur, by any chance?
