Description
"Luna Moth" by Debbie Oppermann. I was very excited to see this beautiful lime green Luna Moth, Actias Luna, Nearctic saturniid, at the cottage at Key River Ontario Canada. It is a rare sight as this gorgeous, nocturnal and very large adult moth lives for only seven days! It mates, reproduces and dies in a week. It has no mouth and doesn't eat. The wingspan is up to 4.5 inches (114mm) making it one of the larger moths. This was a real treat for me to capture this amazing Moth.
