Pyralid Moth
You're joking, right? You knew that it was an Omphalocera cariosa, with that rear-ward pointing drip pattern, am I correct? A first for your state, congrats!

Thanks Bob. You are one of a kind. A soul of nature.
I specialize in skippers and moths just seem to get in the way. I guess I should get serious about moths before I get totally senile.
