A photo of a tan owlfly from the front. The owlfly has long slender antennae, one extends to the left of the frame, the other towards the camera. It has very large eyes, the left has a green iridescence, the right has a star shaped reflection. There is a mass of hair like scales under the owlfly's eyes that looks very much like a beard. The owfly's lace like wings extend upwards from its tan hair covered thorax and its large abdomen extends just out of focus to the upper right.

A tannish gray triangular moth resting on a white sheet and some light blue painted wood siding. The moth has a jagged dark brown pattern on that stretches across the middle of its wings that has a bat-like appearance, almost like Bat Man's logo.
