Monday Morning's Mystery 08229022
August 29, 2022
An Allendale neighbor found this guy on her sunflowers.
We have determined it's a hornworm and are now trying to figure out what it feeds on. Did not seem interested in a tomato plant. It's approx. two inches lone.
Elena Tartaglia, our moth-expert friend, says it is a Eumorpha sp.
Thoughts?
We hope to bring it to the Lee Memorial Library this morning to see if it is also a bookworm.
