A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Catocala lacrymosa
My husband sent these photos to me the other day and took my breath away, as he is apt to do. It looks as though the moth is on a hardwood floor in a corner of a room, which would mean it would have to be HUGE! However, it is actually on a window sill. It is still quite large, though. According to my husband, who spotted this beauty, it is about the size of my palm, which is small for a hand, but big for a moth.
