July 19, 2023

I am a Southern Pink-striped Oakworm Moth
I had a pink stripe even when I was a kid
I'm orange and purple with a little white circle
In the middle of both of my wings.

Note: See caterpillar photo below. That photo was taken on Sept 14, 2018. It's not the same moth, but both photos were taken in my yard, so today's moth is possibly a descendant of that caterpillar. 

Location: My house, Fellsmere
