Luna Moth - Rare Specimen

Luna Moth in WI
Hi there!
A friend of mine took this picture of a Luna Moth in Mount Horeb, WI (Dane County). I was very excited when she showed my the shot as I thought WI was out of their range. After a bit of research, I found that there have been a few sightings in the southern part of the state, including Dane County. However, I thought it was rare enough that you might be interested….plus, it was out during the day. I’m hopeful now that I might see one myself someday!

PS I’ve become addicted to your site…ever since I used it last Summer to ID Box Elder nymphs.
