Polilla del Cuerno del Tabaco (Manduca sexta)Observ.
raehutchinsonDescripción
About 5+ inches long. This caterpillar's legs weren't quite long enough to walk on the road, so as it moved along the pavement, it kept losing its grip and rolling several times before being able to gain its footing and carry on. Very amusing to watch.
Haven't found a species that looks quite right for this one, but assume it has to be a type of sphinx moth. Corrections welcome!

Not sure how much individual variation there is with these guys, but can't seem to narrow down this dull little fella. Any tips are very welcome!

Not sure if this is IDable to species. Tried lightening the photos in various ways, not very successfully. At the time, based on the birds chasing it (ie size), I thought it was a sharp-shinned, but I am not sure.
