Antheraea polyphemus
The upper sides of this moth are reddish brown; it has an eyespot on each wing, which I almost did not get to photograph. The eyespots are blue and yellow with black rings around them.
Common in almost all parts of Canada and also in almost every state in the U.S., except Arizona and Nevada, according to www.butterfliesandmoths.org. No one particular habitat.
Adults do not feed.
