This is again a picture Tom took for the blog some 20 miles or so outside of Green Bay.
I did some research on this type of moth, but I couldn't really come up with a match. If I was pressed I'd call it a sphinx moth ... but who knows. It's honestly more striking than most butterflies I've seen.
I will bring you a photo from Green Bay or (if all else fails) wherever I happen to be at the time.
Typically I take photos with a Sony Alpha 350 with one of three lens [ (18-70mm Sony), (70-200mm Sony), (70-300mm Tamron)].
I currently consider my camera work at a beginner level ... but this blog will help me get better.
From time to time my friend Tom who lives a little further out in the country will be called upon to deliver some photos of local wildlife or pictures from the Bay. These will be noted.
