A Rare View of Life and Death...Photos

[George D. Stout]

I found this adult Luna Moth doing her thing on the underside of the leaves.  The adults live only a week or so, dying shortly after the egg laying is finalized.  They are fairly plentiful, but are rarely seen doing their thing.  This one was in my back yard.
