Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: This moth(?) appeared yesterday on the ledge of our window. This morning I found it on the ground below the window. It crawls around, but does not seem able to fly. It was in the 30's here last night. I'm not sure what to do with it. I moved it from the concrete under the window into a landscaped area, but it's just sitting there.
