Okefenokee Zale Moth (Zale perculta)
Yes, it is interesting. They've been at this location for at least 4 years. Unfortunately, I missed them the last three years. Went there today again, but it was a "no show". I just noticed today MPG doesn't have a record for Alabama, so I thought I'd post mine.

P.S. I didn't know if I responded to Jane & John's comment if you would have gotten notified as well?

Nor A Single Adult On BG
But rearing them to adults would be difficult unless you timed it to within two or three days of pupation. A difficult proposition given climate trends.

Regardless thanks for posting!
