Nice shot - my son-in-law in Aurora has those in his garden but they hide when I grab my camera...

Great photo of him tanking up. Nice to have neighbors that will let you trapeze around their yard. vz

Isn't that a sphinx moth? Do they call them hummingbird moths now. Nice shot at whatever name you call it.

It is a Sphinx moth. They are often called Hawk moths. Hummingbird Moth is usually reserved for the genera Hemaris. Also sphinx moths. The one here is the White Lined. Hyles lineata. Bill
