Came home from Sam's this morning to find a rare Luna Moth on my front porch. This is a male, with a 4-5 inch wing span. These moths only live for a week, and don't have mouths so they can't eat. They mate in the dark and then die, so I was really lucky to see one in the daylight. He is probably either newly hatched from a green caterpillar, or at the end of his short life.
