Wonderful, Gerardo--you've taken two of the 'nameless' off my list. Thanks. Funny thing is I've never seen one on the abundant wild coffee around here. And thank you, Cindy, for the kind words (are you sure it wasn't my moth visiting Gerardo?).

Beautiful series! Hey Gerardo, your moth is visiting Nancy now :)
