Jean,
   I think your help with the Wings Up Bent-line Carpet moth has helped.
About half my unidentified wings-up pictures may be it.  Look at one of
them on my Picasa pictures.  What do you think?

Ken,
   I've included 3 pics that might possibly be 2072– *Chionodes
discoocellella*– Eyeringed Chionodes Moth. I always passed it up because
the head and palps are unlike any of the photos including yours, but your
image 9491  made me take another look.

I have also included species 21, 22, and 23 for December. If my IDs are
good, Spartanburg County which had no moths recorded in December- now has
the second most of any SC county- my excuse of a hot toddy this cold, rainy
evening which probably marks the end of December leps.  I had 5 butterfly
and 5 moth species yesterday.

Ken, I'm also sharing your farm web page with two friends who have horses
and compete in dressage.

Here's the link-
