Definitely one of the grape-mining Antispila species. Great shots.

 
Oh yeah!
Thanks much Charley! Sure is a pretty little moth.

So striking that we thought this would be easy, but.....
We stumbled over a couple that looked similar, but no clear match. Maybe one of the Micro experts will move us along
Lampronia or Antispila??

 
Or. .
Something like Hodges #1055? I can't find anything like it yet. Thanks!
