...The funny thing is that it could be Lophocampa maculata
While there have been many different moths in that corner, there were a couple of Lophocampa maculatas there motionless (as far as I could tell) for days on end.

I know you know about Ken's study. If they hatch, I will definitely try to document their color patterns...
