User's notes
I found this moth on my dogs water bowl as I was refilling it. I assume it's wings got wet causing it to be unable to fly. I relocated it to a safe space after taking the pictures.
After doing a reverse image search, I believe it to be a Circopetes obtusa/Dried Gum Leaf Moth, which is fitting as I named it Leaf for its resemblance to a gum leaf. The name didn't show up in the identification bar, so I'm not certain that is what it is.
