A Few Last Minute Insects and a Spider

Driving home from Rochester in the early evening dark, a moth flitted across the road in front of us. The first insect I've seen outside in about a week. The outside temperature as reported on the dash panel is 43 F, warmer than it's been in a while. As soon as we were home, I turned on the front house light, hoping to attract another moth or two. Eventually a single Fall Cankerworm Moth turned up.
