Field Notes

Description:

tiny moth with yellow and brown lacy wings. Lots of beautiful details. Underwing is light colored. Dots along the abdomen

Habitat:

west central ga

Notes:

I've been trying to get a photo of this moth for a few weeks. It usually rests very high up on our porch and quickly flies away if I get close. I got lucky on the 9th and it was lower down on the post and then went to the window where I could take a picture of it's underwing.
