While walking along the trails at the Park one invariably will flush up small moths. Most are quite nondescript, but this Chickweed Geometer has a splash of color. It is a member of the Geometridae family and is found throughout the U.S. The wingspan is only 20-25mm (less than 1 inch). Adults are on the wing from May to October. 6/24/14 (Wolf. Oesterreich)
