Moth O’clock

A White-speck Moth landed on my thigh, took to my palm, walked around to my arm, and then was coaxed onto a tree.

Raspberry Pyrausta Moth, stirred up as I walked by.
Dogwood Borer Moth. Just sitting there.

    That last one looks like a bee/wasp mimic. I wonder if it fools predators too.

    The Dogwood Borer Moth looks like the result of a wild weekend involving a butterfly, a wasp and a shrimp! Weird looking bug.
