Leopard Moth

My first sighting of one of these, in my bathroom yesterday. There are more species of moths than butterflies, but most are nocturnal.

¡Pura Vida!

This moth is in the Erebidae Family of moths, the family from which I’ve seen my most moths. See the gallery (linked above) to see some of the others in this family.
