I saw the photo that accompanied Swarms of Striped Morning Sphinxes in Baja sent in to you by "A" on April 17, and thought you might enjoy these images made along Rock Creek, Mono County, CA, June 26, 2005. The flower is the rare Lillium kellyanum. Cheers,

Hi Bill,
We don’t believe we have ever received finer images capturing the flight of a White Lined Sphinx, or any other Sphinx for that matter, than yours.
