The Mulberry Wing
This choice is too easy. Also, as busy as I've been in the field (day and night), this is one of the few moths that stands out in my mind of late. Not only was this individual the first of its kind recorded at the James Ramsay Hunt Sanctuary, on July 8, but another one on my Connecticut field trip reinforced its claim to an MOW spot. This is, of course, a Polyphemus Moth (Antheraea polyphemus), one of the giant silkworm moths (family Saturnidae).
