Omgawd! wow. This tiny beautiful moth now rivals the great big Lunar moth in supreme awesomeness (in my mind)! This is the first time i have ever seen a moth with extended arms that look completely like a furry fuzzy beast fists.
The coloring is also very bold, and stunning - I am not sure how this works in nature as far as camo... it reminds me a hipster wedding cake.... so maybe it can hide at annoying, hip weddings? I would hide too.Mr. Fuzz Arms did not blend in well with the colors of wood. But possibly it does with a tree that has alot of white fungus/mushrooms growing on it.
Does anyone know the name of this moth and what caterpillar it comes from?

Your lovely friend is appropriately called a Beautiful Wood Nymph (scentific name is Eudryas grata ("grata" means acceptable in Latin)). Their defense is indeed in their coloring, but rather than trying to blend in to their tree (or more likely vine, as they like grapes, hops, and Virginia Creepers), they are meant to look like a bird dropping when at rest! Their caterpillars are bright orange and bluish, you can switch between adult and caterpillar photos at this site: http://bugguide.net/node/view/3060/bgpage. Thanks again for all your fantastic photos!

What call super Jordan Concords? What call dinghai an anchor back there? What is the buzzer winning? Don't understand it doesn't matter, dwyane wade-(the Po) in today's home game against the pacers, perfect to interpret the all of this Jordan 11 grey. The whole game, wade contributed 28 points and four rebounds and seven assists.
