I've had the luna moths on the garage for about a month now and I kept forgetting to take a picture. One by one the phoebes (birds) have been getting them and for about a week now, they've been gone. clp

I ran for the camera before the phoebes get them.

Here's the biggest cluster of them, six of them at the top of the garage door.

Very pretty moths, Mel. I don't think I've ever seen them around here...maybe it's a regional thing? Thanks for posting the pix.
