These two moths ( the male has antenna with fringes) have been on the front porch all day. Their legs and claws look like they could inflict a painful bite. They are large - 3-5 inches from top wing to bottom of back wing. Never observed these before. Are they dangerous? Will they bite or pinch?
They're Cecropia Moths... the adults don't do anything but breed

There's another page about them
Thank you claypa, I was concerned that it might pinch of bite. It has strong looking legs and claws. We live next to a farm.
