Observation notes: Having a hard time finding a good match for this one. I’m thinking either A. mortuana or dissitana, leaning to the former though. No worries on any delays, I’ve been kind of slow with uploading my records, too. Walking distance is a respectable approach, it’s interesting to see how diverse life can be even within an urban/semi-urban environments. Black Witch is also pretty high on my list, too. I have a friend in Duluth that specifically chased one last year, they look stunning!
