Life On A Quarter Acre

Alfalfa Looper (Autographa californica)

This poor moth was being attacked by ants and could no longer fly. It may Be too far gone to identify, but I thought I'd give it a try.

You can see one of the ants on the moth's front leg in the second picture. I took a video and tried to post it, but it only displayed a photo.
