Thanks, it's the only one that I've seen like it. I live in Arkansas near Fort Smith.

Colona moth
by: Moni

Your photo is of a tiger moth called Colona moth.
They are found on the east coast of the US from VA south, then west to TX, so I assume you live in that area.
This insect if found in moist woodlands. Caterpillars feed on a variety of plants especially deciduous shrubs and trees including but not limited to apple, ash, and hackberry.
