Oleander Hawk Moth

Just spotted this moth on my way to East Coast Park. Shot some and luckily managed to find the name on this site after a short search...

Yeah... tell me about it... after shooting this one, I thought it'll be good to do a search to check the ID, and your thread was the first one I clicked on. Didn't need to search much further. :bsmile:
