this is more true to life colors, because of the white BG, I lighten it a bit..

Just use Google to find anything out. Here's the results for all images of Hummingbird Moth, Hawk Moth.

I don't know, what it is, someone said they were common, but This was my first..
I have those huge moths that, around here, that come out at night, and are about the size of hummingbirds, but this one was much smaller.. about the size of a quarter, with the outer wings close to a 1/2 dollar size.
The yellow tail stripes are what caught my eye.
ps. It looks like he has wing damage on the right wings.
