SkippersSpectacular tail
This hawk moth has a really spectacular, long tail. From head to the tip of the tail it’s probably 2 inches long. The spots on the wing are clear. This was photographed in my flower garden in Friendsood, Texas.

Hi Bruce,
This is not a Hawkmoth. It is a Longtailed Skipper, a butterfly. Thanks for sending in your great photo.
