Goldenrod gall moth (Epiblema scudderiana)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

Found sheltering from the rain on a lupine leaf. There were several of these small moths around and no surprise that they are often referred to as bird-dropping moths (along with several other moth species which also resemble bird scat). These are the moths responsible for the elliptical shaped galls on goldenrod stems.
