It is a silk moth with a 6 inch wing span. It’s a lovely creature with a very short life span as a moth. I found this beauty on my porch .
Have a great week !

It’s so beautiful, with those pink accents! Wouldn’t those colors be pretty in a quilt?? Great close-up photos, Deb!

Luna’s are beautiful,too! I’ve seen them here. I wished they lived just a little longer than they do.

I think moths like a more humid climate, we never see them here, except the Sphinx moths which are tomato horn worms.

Both of these moth ,lay their eggs on the tree leaves that surround us maybe that s why I see the moths more often.
