Field Notes

Description:

I have done my homework on this moth. Most say it's wings look like dead leaves. Meh...kinda. I think the markings on it's back look like a toads face. enough to scare any bug lol

Habitat:

Polyphemus Moths are usually found in forests, but can also be seen in marshes and parks
