Moth Pros

 



Can you tell me what these two are? I figured out for myself that the butterfly is a Viceroy rather than a Monarch, based on the dark line on the hindwing, and the date of its appearance. Have seen several of same up in the fields.

Thanks!

The moth with the two light bands is a Nessus sphinx moth. The other one may be a forester moth but it’s hard to tell with its wings partially closed.

Thank you, Denny, I was hoping someone would know.
