I don't know what it is but it was very lethargic. Almost like it was on it's last leg. It would attempt to fly and then fall back down. Found it on the front chair on my porch.

Pretty cool bug though.

Lovely series of shots- it's a hawk moth (sphinx moth) of some type.

Looks like an alien spacecraft.
