This beauty flew into our truck when we were leaving our land. The area is surrounded by dense mixed hardwood/coniferous forest.

It's so awesome that you are still finding moths!! I still look a few times a week, but only the spiders and a few mosquitoes are still lingering at the lights. Posted 6 years ago

  Yes, we usually continue to get SOME moths through early winter. The last of the Arctiids and Noctuids putter out by that point. Posted 6 years ago
