This is when you should expect to see them. They eclose, mate, the female lays
eggs and the adults die. The eggs overwinter and hatch in the spring.
I've seen a few flying here in past years but I've never seen one holding
still.

Happy Thanksgiving, Yesterday I had a beautiful "Hemileuca maia" or Eastern
Buck Moth. I had never seen one before and was very surprised that it was here
this late and in perfect condition. Yesterday was a decently mild date here
and we have had similar days in the last week with only one day of freezing a
little over a week ago. Great to see this beauty.
