Description
Hi, I found this one today while out... Enjoy!
kinda pressed for time, will give full description and name later.
Hi, I'm back.... this is a Hyles Gallii, the Bedstraw Hawk Moth or Gallium Sphinx Moth. I found it along the dirt path between fields,in some low brush.
This is the 2nd pic I got of it...when I went to move some leaves out of the way for a better first pic, it flew a very short distance and landed here on the forest floor. I'm really happy it did that, as now I have a pic of it's wings unfolded, showing all the bright color patterns it displays in flight...
