An Ailanthus Webworm Moth getting nectar from the flowers at dusk. This "moth" is often mistaken for a beetle because of its appearance and because it comes out during the day. But it is part of the moth family.
This little guy (gal?) was happily climbing around these flower bunches when I started photographing it. So it turned around, towards me, as if to say "this is my good side"!!

No editing done other than a very little cropping and some slight sharpening. I left the picture mainly how it was taken because I thought it had come out really well. No layering or anything.
