sphynx moth

Davenport, Iowa

Actually, black and white wouldn't have been my choice shooting this little fellow - who I thought was a hummingbird buzzing around the flowers I was trying to photograph...but, black and white film was what happened to be in the camera. I was surprised when I developed the shots to see that it wasn't a hummingbird at all, but rather some odd little thing - which on further research turns out to be a sphynz moth.
