Guessing Game: WTF is This??!!

YAY, I know how ya'll like these guessing games - (if anyone's still around after my month of no computer, ha!)
As always this is something in nature, something that could look like something else --- the neat way most things mimic each other in shape or function.

Here is your HINTS:
  • It will fly
  • It is soft and delicate
  • It is nocturnal

Alright ya'll got 3 days, WTF is it?

So cool that the male has the big ol' bushy antennae to detect the female's pheromones. Also cool is how rare it is to see a luna moth at all, given that they only live for a week as adults!

Long url, but good for comparison:
