Hummingbird Moths, Sphinx Moths or Hawk MothsOleander Hawkmoth? in North Carolina!
Hello,
My 6 yr old son (who can find a bug no matter where it tries to hide) found this guy on an air conditioner unit in Denver, NC. Is it normal to find these in NC? It’s not native?

Hi Jeff and Beck,
This is a Pandora Sphinx, not an Oleander Hawkmoth, and it is a resident for your area.
