as you know, I’m not a big fan of insects in general, but I am working with a photographer who is doing a gallery at work; he photographs the caterpillars, but raises them to adulthood and releases them, so he’s familiar with butterflies and moths too. This handsome fellow is a Regal Moth. In his infancy, he was called a Hickory Horned Devil. Check out the link to see why.
His friend in the background there is a Cecropia silk moth.
