Insects Moth ID?

[FowlersFreeTime]

Took a picture of a visitor in the kitchen the other day, it stayed long enough for half a dozen photos, these were the 2 best ones. I need a real macro lens for more detailed stuff! Anyone want to ID this little creature? wingspan was probably 4 inches and the photo was taken on vacation in Jamaica.
