8-23 Slender Gerardia

8-23
Slender Gerardia is opening its first flowers. This species is said to favor dry woods and fields. I find it along sandy river banks and in old parking lots and gravel pits.
A dagger moth caterpillar - probably that of the Splendid Dagger Moth - posed motionless on a willow twig.
