Your letter to the bugman: Seen in the evening, July 19, 2021, Bend, Oregon. Nudged it to see if it was two separate bugs but it didn’t separate.
How you want your letter signed: Julie
Dear Julie,
This is a Moth but we can’t see enough detail to provide you with a definitive species (or family) identification, but we believe this may be a Buck Moth in the genus Hemileuca. One highly variable species, the Elegant Sheep Moth, is pictured on the Moth PHotographers Group site. It is also possible this might be a Tiger Moth in the subfamily Arctiinae.
The post Buck Moth we believe appeared first on What's That Bug?.
