what is it?

Wow! That's just nuts. I love the eye spots. What kind is it?

Antheraea polyphemus


Giant Silk Moth......It was walking across my lawn yesterday afternoon. Not uncommon and not the first one I've found here but the first one in a few years.
I released it, but I think it was at the end of it's life cycle. Usually the wings are damaged but this one is pristine.

Here's weird one that I found outside the garage door. It looks like it has hair.

That is a sphinx moth.

Nice paint jobs on the both of them.
I bet you could never find that sphinx moth on a background of dried leaves.
