Date notes: Nessus Sphinx Moth on my porch!
Submitted by: Bretito
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I saw this scary looking large flying thing with two yellow bands on the end of its abdomen... Looked like a hummingbird but also like a large scary looking hornet or something. I quickly made my two dogs run inside and took a bunch of pictures and videos until I finally figured out it was just this moth... So weird it was drinking or looked like it was drinking water off of my porch after a crazy thunderstorm we just had...
