Rusty Tussock Moth Part III

Orgyia antiqua

This is the final part of the moth trilogy
I showed the caterpillar of this moth here
Followed by the cocoon it spun here

The adult moth, a male, has now emerged and this is it.
I have shown two views; to see the beautiful branched antennae in one view and the characteristic white spots in the other.

The moth was then released to find a female and start the cycle all over again
