Oleander Moth - Syntomeida epilais

Oleander Moth - Syntomeida epilais
Titusville, Brevard County, Florida, USA
January 4, 2013
Size: 30 mm
I photographed this guy on a rainy January day perched on my lemon tree, which is no more than 10 feet from a patch of oleander in my garden.
It's not unusual to see these guys around Oleander, but it did seem odd to see one of these guys in early January.
