 Odds and Ends of June!

Pecks Skipper on an Iris, Tall Grass Prairie, Windsor.

White-spotted Sable Moth, Canatara. This species can be a challenge to find as they usually rest on the underside of leaves.

Virginia Ctenucha Moth, Perch Creek. Like the more familiar Wooly Bears, Ctenuchas are in the Tiger moth family. They overwinter as caterpillars and pupate in spring in cocoons which they construct using their own hairs. The are a day flying species.
