The other day, we saw this super gigantic moth attached to the screen of our kitchen window.
We figured it would fly away on its own so we left it alone. We left to go shopping and do some other errands. When we returned, it was still there so I had to take a photo. It was between 3-4 inches long.
Does anybody know what kind of moth it is?

Wow!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like tree bark.
ReplyDeleteIf you were still in Japan, I'd say Mothra.
ReplyDeleteThat is a bit eerie, it staying there like that.
ReplyDeletehave not idea it's name but it's huge!
ReplyDeleteI'm not 100% sure, but the closest I could research was the Yellow-Striped Armyworm Moth
ReplyDeleteDon't know what he is but I'd keep my closet doors locked in case he is into clothes.
ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful, whatever it is, and it needs to be hiding on a tree, not a window screen.

ReplyDeleteAwesome! Thank you. Could be the American Idia.
DeleteI know! It's a LARGE moth. What kind it is, well, maybe somebody will know. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis moth is not only large but old. The ends of the wings are tattered and worn and no I don't know what it is.
ReplyDeleteA behe-moth.
ReplyDeleteGeorge says Big. You inspired him to take a picture of the one inch spider outside our bedroom. We don't know what he is.
ReplyDeleteAaack! I have arachnophobia. That would freak me out.
ReplyDeleteWow! He's beautiful whatever he is. I love Infidel's answer -- a Behe-moth!
ReplyDeleteYou best find out what kind it is just in case it poses some danger.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! have you looked under its wings? We have quite a few 'underwings', like tiger moths, who have lovely colours.
