Unnamed spotting

Description:

This moth was huge! And very beautiful. As you can see from the nickel, he wasn't moving very much. There is a slightly wooded area behind the pharmacy where it was hanging out, but it isn't deep woods.

Notes:

This moth was just hanging out on the sidewalk next to the pharmacy.
