Merrill,  I've noticed ncsc-moths has been quiet lately. tn-moths has been 
quite active. I subscribe to both and have been learning from both. Maybe 
others would like to do the same. So this is an invitation. I'm copying it to 
tn-moths so that it can go both ways.

Haven't seen any posts recently from anyone in the group--hope that means that 
everyone is just busy on summer projects (or maybe it means everyone is 
depressed about the Deepwater Disaster).  Things have been pretty slow the last 
couple of weeks at Echo Valley.  Did have a fresh #8858 Hawthorn Catacala 
(Catacala craetaegi) this morning on the porch.  Also a couple of Io moths and 
a Polyphemus in the past several days.  
 
Also several individuals of #6303 Barred Macaria (Speraza subcessaria).  
Caterpillars feed on Ribes (gooseberries) and this species is considered rare 
in NC and is tracked by the NC Natural Heritage Program.
 
Also, a single # 9065 Green leuconycta (Leuconycta diphteroides).
 
Solace in moths,
