Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: The moth was on the outside of an electric bug zapper seemingly warming itself. The temperature outside was around 72°F. I gave it and gentle pet twice. On the second stroke it fell to the ground, wings spread and appeared dead. I then gently touched it and it moved and wrapped its wings tightly around it. This moth played opossum!
