      I think the URL of the moth photo is messed up; I was unable to find a way to view your photo.

      Hello Jim,

      Yes. I did try to place a follow up to say that it would not display but it did not appear.

      When I previewed the Q the photo did display but when I clicked 'Submit' it was no longer there.

      If you goto link:

      http://www.answerway.com/eforum/read.php?f=1&i=12599&t=12599

      and scroll down, you should be able to see the photo. However some can see it and others can't. Goodness knows why.

      I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

      Thanks.

      Plutus

      Well, "Sphinx Moth" just describes a fairly large family of moths. It includes the moth that leaves behind caterpillars known as "Tomato Hornworms",
      "tomato
      and members who are known as "hawk moths" and ones who so closely resemble hummingbirds in their flight and feeding habits that they are frequently mistaken for hummingbirds.
