I actually took this shot a few years ago, I am fairly certain it is a Polyphemus Moth

This is exactly what I see before the spider jumps on my camera.
Found this guy out at the lake, it is fairly large for a jumping spider in Manitoba. Which is probably why it was less timid than most. It still managed to jump on my camera lense about a dozen times.
Lady bugs a plenty!
I had gathered up the eggs from earlier, I figured they would not fare very well in the burning sun (also I was looking forward to finding out what they are). And after about five days they hatched! So i let them loose in the garden.
So, any idea what they might be?
Two more shots of the jumping spider from earlier.
