Moths and snow...

A phone call late yesterday evening sent me rushing around to my sister-in-law's house to pick up a mystery moth she had just discovered and "jarred" for me. Upon looking at it under a light I could clearly see it was Ufeus satyricus, a bit worn but no mistaking it. This is late flyer, but usually in October. To see one this late is, I think, exceptional. Also, I've not seen the species before in the Toronto area. The moth world is full of surprises thinks the MM.
