Moth
It’s a moth. Here’s the BugGuide. Ready? Go.
Steve Allen sends in this nice pic. There are a number of moth species that are white or mostly white, some of them even have seriously bad attitudes.
Sometimes the scenery in a picture catches my eye; I made a widescreen wallpaper of this image, because Steve’s deck railing has a nifty texture to it:
Slowly getting the site back onto an even keel. It's nice to get back into the old posting rhythm.

Buffer Status: 0. I am a bad, bad man. I haven’t been sitting on my laurels, I promise!
…I’ve been stretched full length upon them, sleeping soundly. *sigh*
Okay, I repent. I have slotted up pictures for 3 days ahead, and by this time tomorrow will have pictures slotted up for the next 7 days. I promise. And if I don’t, well, I’ll do something embarrassing and post pictures.

Well, it certainly *looks* like an “Agreeable Tiger Moth”, Spilosoma congrua. I wonder just what made these so agreeable. Like the “Pleasing Fungus Beetle”, that one always cracks me up for some reason.
