I was sitting at my desk late the other night when something started bonking against the window. That would be this fellow here. With a wingspan of about five and a half inches, the polyphemus moth does make quite a commotion on the window glass. This is one big moth, ladies and gentlemen. I suggest we do exactly as he says.
Behold the Mighty Polyphemus

We had a huge green luna moth a few years ago. So large I thought it was a bird. Big moths are cool. Nice pattern on the wings. Southwest collaration.
That thing is scary with eyes on it’s wings.
