This is a Luna Moth (Actias luna), one of the most striking and recognizable moths in North America.
Key features:- Pale green wings with long, trailing hindwings.
- Eyespots on both forewings and hindwings.
- Fuzzy body with feathery antennae (especially prominent in males).
- No mouthparts – the adult moths do not eat and live only about a week, long enough to reproduce.
They’re harmless and rare to see, as they’re mostly nocturnal and don’t live long.
