Hi, all!  I left the blacklight on here at the park last night and had
quite an assortment this morning!  Most were common species that I see all
the time (ie: Rosy Maple, Eastern Tent Caterpillar, Dimorphic Tosale . . .
etc. . .etc . . .)  I did have this one, though, that seems unfamiliar to
me.  I think it is #7139 - Cyclophora pendulinaria - Sweetfern Geometer;
however the forewing shape doesn't seem angled quite enough---so I would
love to have your opinions!  Thanks!
