This is an interesting moth that I found hanging on the facing of the patio door one day. I am not sure just what the proper name for this moth is, but it looks kind of like the Acraea Moth. I
thought I would put a picture up and perhaps someone will have the correct identification. If not, hopefully I will get a book on North American moths and find the ID myself.As you can see from the picture the with trim on the door frame is about the same color as the white on the moth. It was just luck
that I happened to pick this one out since I wasn't looking for bugs at the time. This is just an example of some of the things you can find in your backyard if you take the time to look
around. I know that there are many interesting and beautiful moths in our area and hopefully over time I will be able to get pictures of them on this website.
Yellow
Striped Armyworm
Moth
I don't know
if that is the
name for the
moth, but it is
the moth that
comes from the
Yellow Striped
Armyworm so
until I find a
different name
for it I will
use that here.
