Image of Chickweed Geometer
Description:
I was trying to make this into something similar to Southern Purple Mint Moth, but the feathery antennae are different as well as perching posture. Not sure on this one at all. It visited the wall outside my back door very briefly, then left. I was not able to get a shot with a mm ruler visible, but this was smallish, maybe 15 mm wing span
