I’ve never met a this docile before! Rescued from a Hoophouse and flew off after.

Last prompt for the Haunted Garden Art Challenge before the free prompt.

Prompt: "Dark Moth."

Drew a Vine Sphinx. If you've never seen one, they're incredible. I was lucky: one landed in my backyard & I got a picture (second pic here.) They're amazing creatures & it's the largest moth I've ever seen in person.

This reddish brown , , entertained me for quite some time as it flitted from one purple/pink bloom to another of the Butterfly Bush, Buddleia. It comes by its name honestly as it hovers, hums and nectars just like the Hummingbird and it loves the same flowers.

Have you ever had a beautiful insect just stop you in your tracks? This beautiful white-lined sphinx moth, a species of Hawk moth, was sitting outside the door of our winery Tasting room the other day. Couldn’t help but stop and snap a photo.
