MY HUBS FOUND THIS MOTH ONE MORNING ABOVE OUR GARAGE DOOR. I BELIEVE IT IS A CECROPIA MOTH AND THE LARGEST MOTH FOUND IN NORTH AMERICA. IF IT ISN'T I HOPE SOMEONE WILL LET ME KNOW. :)
This. Is. Amazing.
That's crazy awesome. I've never seen a moth lik ethat before. O.O
Very pretty - even ragged! :)
I got a critter up also!!

What a find, he's beautiful! Great photo of him.
Wow nice close-up, lovely colours too:)
Wonderful shot. Kudos to your husband for pointing him out to you! ;-)
That is one war torn critter. Hope it found it's mate during its short life.
Carletta, I believe your ID is correct. And though his wings are a bit tattered, he sure is beautiful.
certainly uniquely beautiful
Wow! Nice shot!
I played too :)
Carletta, that certainly is a well worn coat.
WOW! Wonderful shot.
Is he ragged because he's getting old or has he always been ragged? Such a short life!
Magnificent!
Happy Camera Critters

Nice moth. Most of the wings on honey bees are like this as are they on bumblebees and butterflies. I think it is a harzard like shoes wear out when walking. So the insect with the tattered wings has done a lot of walking.

the reddish color is amazing
he sure does look like he's been thru a lot
Very impressive! How big is it? Looks very big and from your description, it should be very big.
Carletta: How neat to get a photo to keep for the future of this moth.
Oh WOW! What an awesome shot. Have a wonderful weekend Carletta.

Our husbands did good in spotting moths. Very spectacular one - love the red fur - very dramatic coloring - I got the memo and posted a pink one :)
I think this lovely has been flying a bit too close to the sun, but he sure is lovely.

Hi Carletta,
