Delicate moth on delicate plant

03 Jul 2013 2 1 276
To get away from the intense heat yesterday, I drove around the backroads SW of Calgary yesterday afternoon. The car air-conditioning felt so good! I did drive west of the city first, out past Bragg Creek (one of the places worst hit in the province by the Flood of the Century). However, the Kananaskis area is closed, due to road damage and washed out bridges, so I was only able to drive as far as the turn-off for Maclean Creek. I found this pretty little butterfly (or moth) when I was at Maclean Pond yesterday, 2 July 2013. Haven't had a chance to try and ID it yet. Later: Don Delaney on Flickr gave me this ID - this is a Yellow Dusted cream Moth (Cabera erythemaria).
