I think this moth is a bit unusual as it looks the same on both sides of the wings.

Aurora, male  NF Photo 090512

I have been searching for the female for several years. Today I finally found her. And was lucky enough to get shots. I was biking when I saw her. Thought she looked a little different from what I usually see. And I was so happy when I saw the undersides were mottled green and white . Aurora, YES! The photo of the male is from 090512
