    Mothzilla
    A couple of days ago I found a moth sitting on our glass window outside of work. He was amazing! The biggest moth I've ever seen around Massachusetts. His body was two inches and his wing span was probably around 5 or 6 inches across. The wings went from way above his head to below his body. It was early afternoon and kind of warm. He was sitting in the direct sun. The coloring was tan, cream, light brown, and rather simple (no eyes, etc.). The wings seemed hairy or tectured. The body and legs were very hairy like a tarantula and he had feathery antennae. He kept his wings closed like a butterfly. I have searched the web looking for the species and I haven't had any luck figuring it out. Can someone help?

    Guessing
    Hello...

    Sounds interesting. I'm only guessing here, but try looking up "humingbird moth" and see if that looks like what you saw.
