Hey, Jakubko... I looked up Saturniid Moths pics on Google and you maybe right there. I wish that I had saved one. I'll be keeping an eye out for more this year.

Interesting. That is usually characteristic of species of Saturniid Moths.

Hey J... I checked on them around 4pm today and they have already hit the highway. Did you notice the tail on these?
Jacob Gorneau
How interesting! Could you check back in a few days and see what they look like then? They look a little small now for an ID.
