Imperial Moth Laying eggs
Hi WTB,
I am so glad that you are back! I live in central Florida and have two very curious girls who are 16 and 12. Yesterday my 12 year-old ran home from the bus stop and exclaimed,"Dad, Come quick, you’ve got to see this moth!" I grabbed my camera and she brought me to the side of a tree where she had found a very large yellow moth which was laying eggs on a live oak tree. I am an amatuer nature photographer and was able to get this picture of it as well. Thanks for the great site. We visit it often.

Goodness Mike,
Your letter makes it sound like we were gone for months, or even years. We were only away for a few days. Thanks for your awesome image of a female Imperial Moth laying eggs. It is an exquisite photo.
