Polyphemus (Sabine Overink)
This evening, a Polyphemus moth appeared on our livingroom window. We live on County Road 6, Lakefield. I was able to get a picture of it.
Observer: Sabine Overink
(Note: This is one of the giant silkworm moths. It is native to Ontario but seldomly seen. The top side of the body is even more impressive with two big, transparent eyespots surrounded by concentric yellow and blue rings. Numbers of all the giant silkworm moths seem to be declining – D.M.)
