Docile enough to let me move it. About an inch and a half wide, all white, no spots.
Shot this evening just before sunset.
I know that moths are tough, a general ID would be fine.
Thanks.

I think your moth is the Pearl Beauty moth (Campaea perlata) in the family Geometridae: http://www.cbif.gc.ca/spp_pages/geometroidea/jpgs/image_e.php?image%5B%5D=106796.jpg,Campaea+perlata
