Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Discovered this interesting moth resting on a large metal post as part of a gate for the dumpster area behind our business park. The moth seemed to be sleeping and did not attempt to fly away. I nudged one of its legs with a small twig and it only moved very slightly. The weather was sunny at about 67F and windy.
Of course I know nothing about moths, however my wife thinks it might be nocturnal due to the light color of this creature. Perhaps they are all(moths) nocturnal?
