I discovered this Texas Grass Tubeworm Moth on May 15, 2014 on some clothesline that was serving as a bean trellis on the arbor. The larvae of this species eat grass, as the name indicates.

Texas Grass Tubeworm Moths have highly variable appearance. Here is another one, which I found in my kitchen on May 2, 2017. The one above was also found in May.
