Common Oak Moth
(Phoberia atomaris - 8591)
Miacy:
This is a common and highly variable noctuid
that appears early every spring. They range from pale gray to deep gray. The pattern is always the same, though.
As the name suggests, the larvae feed on oak leaves.

This looks like a nice fresh speciman. The antennea look like wires.Great shot.
In all it's simplicity, a handome little guy!
Great camouflage for being on an oak tree. Not as colorful as some of our delightful summer butterflies, but as KaHolly notes, beautiful in its simplicity.
How do you find these guys....amazing
