Saturnia pyri ..............Giant Peacock Moth 120-150mm
We have seen these flying around the street light, but never thought we would see one this close. Dave was going out and we think it flew into our outside light, then it landed in the trough of succulents outside the door.
This has to be the best picture, and Dave is so brave !!
(its worth zooming in on this to see all the feathery antennas)
you will be pleased to know that it eventually flew off, after we put out all our lights !

Beautiful, I really love the first two pictures, the moth and plants.
