Your letter to the bugman: Hi. This guy has been hanging out on our garage for a couple days. I think it is a Sphinx moth – specifically a Blinded Sphinx moth. Am I correct?
How you want your letter signed: Thanks, Cheryl
Small Eyed Sphinx
Dear Cheryl,
This is a Small Eyed Sphinx, not a Blinded Sphinx. The two moths are in the same genus, so they are closely related and share physical characteristics.
