Thankfully, something new to post

Thanksgiving porch moth This lovely moth was on my porch this morning. It had a familiar look to it: brownish with wings laying out flat. A Geometrid species, of which there are hundreds. But as I searched through all my moth photos, I couldn't find one exactly like this. So off to BugGuide I went, where I'm pretty sure it matches up with the genus Tetracis.

 Happy Thanksgiving.
