Clymene Moth (Haploa clymene; Hodges #8107) - The Blue Trail Wilderness Area, The Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, New Jersey

I spooked this guy while walking the Blue Trail and was quite impressed by the bright orange color of its under-wings when it flew. It landed in the dead leaves where I got some ensurance shots, and I then spooked it a couple of time to see if I could get it to land with its under-wings exposed. I had no luck with that, but did eventually get it to land on a live plant instead of the dead leaf litter.
