Description Atlas Moth, Attacus atlas

Taken at Niagara Falls' butterfly conservatory, I have never before seen these guys up close --- and live. I have only ever seen them before live at the conservatory in Cambridge, Ontario. I find them beautiful and this one didn't give a hoot that I was there.

Stunning macro. If not a tad creepy. I love looking at photographs of moths but if one gets near me I freak and hide... lol
