Happy National Moth Week!

Just found my first moth to celebrate National Moth Week!
I took my little dog out "to do it" early this morning when I saw something fluttering... a UFO!
It was pink and about 1/4 inch long and landed on a lavender flower.
I ran and got the macro lens and this is what I got.
North Central Texas Wildlife on fb to the rescue in helping to ID this moth!
Inornate Pyrausta Moth

(This will take the place of the robin image for this week but will leave the robin photo up.)
After all... it is a woman's prerogative to change her mind!

Fantastic shot of this little Pyrausta! The colours here are so beautiful; it chose a perfect plant to land on. It just wanted to welcome you to National Moth Week! VV
