Default PHOTO OF THE WEEK, Imperial Moth

If you squint your eyes and look at it, it looks like dog with sunglasses
on! Wonder what that pattern really is supposed to look like, as far as
camoflauge/defense?

Beautiful moth and so BIG! He does look rather regal.
Thanks for the shot.

Gordy (our goat) was sniffing the ground in the woods last week, clearly
trying to make sense out of something. When I went over to look, I found
this beautiful moth had caught his attention.

Now if I could just train him to find truffles.
