Mowing the lawn for the first time in weeks kicked up a number of moths.
I suddenly felt something on my arm and it was this robber catching this
moth (Argyriini, maybe
Urola nivalis Hodges #5464). I grabbed my camera
and managed one photo before it flew up into the tree canopy.
The moth is a bit bleached because I took the shot without changing from last nights settings
and had to brighten the robber up for details...a sacrifice to get at least the one photo.
This female seems to share a few characters with my mystery male with all the gold hair.

She has the golden mystax with gold hairs on the abdomenal plates & the leg pattern
is similar: femur black on top with the orange wrapping up the sides from below.
