Whoopee,
Today felt and smelt like spring!  This Morning Cloak was flying at
1200' elevation at the Blue Wall Preservs, Greenville County, SC.
 It's one of three species that overwinters as an adult and flies on
warm winter days!  Brings back fond memories of Colorado when I
sometimes saw the Morning Cloak fly over the snow on warm March and
April days near Colorado Springs.

Also saw a small moth, but couldn't get picture.
