Pachysphinx modesta
This looks like a moth but it's really big and has a different wing shape.
I found it on my window.
Nuwan's identification looks spot on to me! It's really a charismatic group of moths--nice spotting! :)
that's interesting, so is that what you would classify it? would I put it under there? @AngelaHoover
That's a moth alright! It looks like a member of the family Sphingidae:
