Waiting for the bank to open
Here is an imperial moth (Eacles imperialis) on the front window of Liberty National Bank on Monday morning.
It is the second species of a large moth found at the bank in the past month.
One wonders why such large moths, rarely seen around here, take to the the bank window.
Perhaps, the old saying is true: He who is careful with his money sees moths fly out when he opens his wallet. This imperial moth, in shades of brown and yellow, has a 4-inch wingspan. The imperial moth is on decline in the U.S.
