Coordinator notes: Beautiful moth. Are you aware of iNaturalist? If not, you might find it interesting if you take photos of other things besides moths. Plants, mushrooms, birds, etc. You might also find it interesting to see the huge number of different moths that have been photographed in Portage County this year. I was amazed. I've been posting on iNaturalist most days.
