Thanks Tom,
Appreciate Merrill forwarding my email. Did not know you were into moths also.
Really gorgeous moth. I hope next year I can get into doing some moth id in the
backyard.
Hopefully we can get back to Bradford Park this fall to see if what butterflies
are there. Carl Ganser was with me and enjoyed our NABA count at the Peedee
NWR. Maybe we can all return to Bradford to check it out with the late summer
blooms.
I am planning on going to a Blue Ridge Parkway butterfly count this weekend
organized by Dennis Burnette near Glendale Springs in Ashe County...may be
little cooler.
Jules

Thanks for sharing the great pictures. Wonderful to hear so many species are
around. Someday I would like to use a light and cloth to see what can still be
found in suburban Charlotte near downtown.

Carolina moth'ers,
A few more pics of some of the more interesting moths from this past
weekend.
1) Rheumaptera prunivorata (Cherry Scallop Shell) #7292 (One of my
favorite moths and fairly common at my lights)
2) Acronicta noctivaga (Night-wandering Dagger Moth) #9259
3) Epicallima argenticinctella (Orange-headed Epicallima Moth) #1046
(tiny--about 5-6mm long but beautiful when viewed at close range)
