Hello, you might have to zoom in to see it better. This moth flew into my room last night, and I'm just curious as to what it is! ( photo / image / picture from Pastel's Garden )
Perhaps a Black-dotted Brown moth, Cissusa spadix. As the picture is small, the feature spots are hard to resolve. Jerry
Uh, how do you zoom in here? I must not have that feature on my computer as I have never figured out how to do that. :-?
Carolyn, On a PC try: Start, Programs (All Programs in XP), Accessories, Accessibility, Magnifier. If magnifier is not installed it can be installed from the windows disk. On a Mac it is 'command +' Jerry P.S. I have not touched a PC since I retired, I know nothing of the new OS's
yeah, the image isn't very big. I tried to upload a larger one before, but the size exceeded the maximum uploading size, and I don't know how to compress it. Thanks for your replies!
I've created a zoomed version for you Carolyn. Hope you don't mind Pastel. Close up of Pastel's moth ( photo / image / picture from Frank's Garden )
A better possibility is the Eastern Tent Caterpillar (Malacosoma americanum), resolution of the stripe across the body precludes a positive identification, however it is now more likely than the Cissusa spadix as the spots are not visible. Jerry
WOW! thanks Frank....As I am fairly computer NOT savvy, I appreciate that. It does look familiar, but I am not sure.
