Bob,  its probably something in the genus Chionodes.  I've had a similar
moth recently that went in the unidentified file.

Noctua pronuba that I recognized in time to catch and photograph the

After I took photos, I realized that it's a Gelechoid of some kind that I
first photographed on August 14 and again on August 17. Here are three
photos. Suggestions please.
