Summary Seveal moths found on outside walls/windows of Visitor's Center where they were presumably attracted by lights at night.

Also one moth found by Rowan on main trail. Seemed to have a malformed or damaged wing and though it appeared to be attempting to fly, it had little success.

Variable Carpet (Anticlea vasiliata) most common - saw at least 6 or 7.

Also saw a couple of other Geometrids, but wasn't able to get pictures of them.
