Could be a Close-Banded Yellowhorn, I think I detect a bit of yellow near it’s head . It’s a Moth, It’s favorite host plant is Birch

Thanks much!
OK, So I’m almost sure I was wrong the first time, DUH! It looks like the caterpillar is on Dogbane which would make this little craeture a Dogbane Tiger Moth! So I’m not perfect!
Sounds good.
Thanks.
picture is still amazing
