Hey bugman
I Know that this is a hummingbird moth. The best I can compare it to on your web site is the pink spotted hawk moth. I see them very late in the evening dartings around some ginger lilies I have planted. Just thought I would get you opinion and share this picture I took of one of the moths. 9-24-2005 Georgia
