Default Elephant Hawk Moth

Following up to Roger Hunt wrote:

I have a good resident population of Hawkmoths as well, and they
occasionally fly in. (The other night a red-green carpet moth flew in
and sat for a good while by the keyboard near the light, looking very
handsome.)

before the floodlights go out, look up at the myriad nightjars
hunting moths.
