Hummingbird Moths, Sphinx Moths or Hawk MothsJust wish to share some photos
Love your site! I have been here regularly. This is my first email though. I am a biologist, a science teacher, and an amateur photographer, and I would like to share some of my photos with you. The photos were taken in the goldcountry/foothills of California. Mostly oak woodlands and chapparal. I don’t know the species in the photos but do know one is a mantid and the other is a moth. Thank you again for such a wonderful site. Sincerely,
Wildlifeguy
Hi Wildlifeguy,
We are especially interested in your photo of the lovely Pacific Green Sphinx, Arctonotus lucidus. It is also known as the Bear Sphinx and you can read more on Bill Oehlke’s excellent website.
