Ooh! Beautiful and this link was kind of interesting. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antheraea_polyphemus If I understand it correctly your moth only lived a week as an adult. I was kind of hoping that a silk moth so close to my home might produce silk but no mention of that. I heard that the gypsy moths that have devastated some of the trees in B.C. were brought in by hopefuls that this hardy moth would be able to produce silk in Victoria. Love all these pics and people who help identify them! |
