Observation date: September 23, 2017
Submitted by: bowers111315
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: About 71° & a very humid night. The moth was attracted to the light from our bathroom. It was sitting on our window screen. It didn't mind me popping the screen out to take a picture, & stayed even after I popped the screen back in. Very pretty moth that resembles a leaf!
