Regal Moth AKA Cool Moth 1 - a photo on Flickriver

I found these photos in my Flickr folder labeled "Cool Moth". So, I decided the "cool moth" needed to be shared along with some of our other insect friends. It was spotted above me on the brick wall of a school building, probably about 8 feet off the ground. I would have liked to see it on eye level, but obviously it wasn't interested in me or moving lower for my camera.

I hadn't ever seen this moth before that I recall. A quick internet search based on the colors led me to determine it was a Regal Moth, also listed as a Royal Walnut Moth and a "Hickory Horned Devil" in the larvae stage.

Here's a link if you want to see the "Hickory Horned Devil" and read more about it:
