Was hoping you could identify this one for me and my two young girls. Just moved to Central Ohio and found this guy in our front yard at about 8 AM. We live near a wooded area and water. Was around 75 degrees that morning.

Hi Tonya,
The markings and coloration of the Pandora Sphinx, the species you photographed, are frequently likened to the print on camouflage fatigues.
