    "Oh wow!" is literally what I said when I zoomed in on the antennae. I was in the middle of a sentence (talking to Dave), when I got derailed by this beauty. Posted 4 years ago

      I've had quite a few of these the past couple of nights. I was happy to get such a fresh specimen! Posted 4 years ago

The Agreeable tiger moth

The agreeable tiger moth is one of three species of white tiger moth which are common in the United States. It has pronounced black eyes, white abdomen, and orange "bib" which set it apart from its cousin the Virginia tiger moth. Like its cousin, it tents its wings when as at rest.
