Found this on a concrete wall outside work…The wingspan was about 6 inches across when opened…Never saw anything like it…Was just wondering what it was…Thanks

Hi Pat,
The Cecropia Moth is frequently confused for a butterfly because of its large size and beautiful coloration. The average person erroneously believes all moths are small and drably colored.
