The Giant Silk Moth - Antheraea Polyphemus
Meet a Giant Silk Moth. He has a wing span of around six inches and a chunky body as fat as my thumb! These are the most beautiful coloured creatures but why is somewhat of a mystery. They attract mates with pheromones and fly at night when no one can see their stunning colours. The only reason to be painted so brightly is for the rest of the world to be appreciative of. Simply speaking a gift from the Creator.
These were taken using my Canon PowerShot SX60 HS

Our lives become beautiful not because we are perfect but because we put our heart into what we do.
