Handling a Luna Moth Respectfully!

This is a beautiful Luna Moth (Actias
luna) which is cold in the early morning. This BUG-Person handled this
animal very gently and respectfully so she didn't rub too many of its wing
scales off. The scales help protect the wing, keep it waterproof and make it
pretty!
