Giant Silk MothsMoth?
This beautiful moth, about 1.5 inches long, has been on my screen door all morning. I’m afraid to disturb it before I learn what it is. I live in NE Alabama and we have wonderful bugs here! I love your website. Thanks!

Hi Martha,
We believe this to be The Virginian, Anisota virginiensis. You did a pretty good job with BugGuide.
