Description Giant Atlas Moth
Powell Gardens, Missouri

Sorry about the image quality. I wish I had my good camera for this, but I only had my little pocket shooter.

Visited my sister in Missouri this past weekend and we checked out their butterfly exhibit. These moths were really cool and they're nocturnal so they didn't move if you tried to take a picture. They were also about the size of your face.
