Thank you Richard! I was just checking out the great video on your blog! Thank you for adding a color photo - there are over 11,000 named species of moth in the US alone & many look very similar, so the more info the better! We do have several moth experts within the Community so hopefully we will be able to find a name for your moth!

Hi Karen - wow, great photos you have! Thanks for the guidance on combining spottings. I would have responded directly there, but deleted the post (oops). I think I have it straight now, and also with a color photo. It's more of a lateral view than dorsal, but hopefully this will be useful.
