Bright desert moth - Baptarma felicita

Bright desert moth - Baptarma felicita
Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument, Riverside County, California, USA
March 20, 2016
Size: 1.5 inches across
Was photographing desert flowers and this alighted briefly. Looks fuzzy, so I'm assuming its a moth. The red on the hindwing was very bright.

Gorgeous! Thanks for the addition!
