...and to confuse ya'll further...here's a Vine Sphinx moth (Eumorpha vitis vitis). They all look similar don't ya think?! :o) This one is of the same genus as Sherry's moth.

These like using native Cissus vines as a larval host plant.

Am glad I have a mercury vapor security light by the garage!!! I get a variety of moths throughout the year on the garage walls :o) I try to remember to step outside the garage and check the wall before I get into the vehicle to leave for work - but when I forget I usually end up noticing something on the wall as I am backing out of the garage. Then of course, I have to turn off the vehicle, get the camera and take photos!!!
