I found this large moth crawling very fast up the brick wall. At first I thought it was a Rustic moth but it has white lines on the wings instead of white, kidney shaped marks.
Then I thought maybe it might be a Dagger moth but couldn't find one with this color while doing my research.
I was so 'focused' on quickly getting photos that I didn't even see that spider on the left side. You know me, if I had seen it I would have run away.
Because it is a large moth, I wondered if it was in the Sphinx or Hawk moth families? But it doesn't look similar to them. What I do know is that I spent countless days and hours researching but to no avail. If anyone can identify this moth, please let me know.

Hi @borjan! Yay! Butterflies! Thanks for your entry. : )
:)
Hello Dear @whatisnew! Wow! what and interesting moth! Unfortunately, I am far from being n expert, so if you don't know, I definitely can't help you! I also took photo of a moth that I have no idea what kind it is, but I couldn't get a good shot, because she was hiding from me, in the bushes, lol.
Anyway, this is my entry:

And this is the moth I tried to capture back in summertime:
Hi Lena! The moth from last year looks so pretty and it is a shame you couldn't get closer. Thanks for your entry. : )
Maybe I find her this year. Always a pleasure My Dear 🦋🌸🦋
Hello @whatisnew thank you very much for the mention! Like you I will take the task to investigate about this night moth which by the way is very strange. Interesting, as soon as I have some information I'll pass it on. I'll leave my entry anyway. Grateful!
Congratulations to the winning users.
My pleasure @belkisa758! I wish you luck and thanks for looking, but don't let it drive you crazy like it did me. LOL! Thanks for your entry. : )
Thanks very much!!!!
My pleasure! : )
Felicitaciones a todos los ganadores!! buenas entradas.
Esa mariposa llama la atención que, tiene un patrón de colores oscuros muy peculiar y llamativo.
Estoy buscando insectos, creo que me abandonaron todos, las arañas, mariposas, geckos y etc...
Congratulations to all the winners! Good tickets
That butterfly attracts attention, it has a very peculiar and striking dark color pattern.
I'm looking for insects, I think they all abandoned me, spiders, butterflies, geckos and etc ...
Hi Cheerleader! I am sorry to hear that the insects have not been visiting you. Not even a spider? Good luck with your search. : )
Amiga @whatisnew, saludos. No te imaginas las horas que pasé en mi jardín, buscando bichos. Ni siquiera una araña. Ayer salí, y pasó frente a mi una mariposa amarilla. La perseguí le pedí que se detuviera. Me pusé de rogar y ella igual, nunca se detuvo, más de unos segundos, en una hoja. Triste. Perdí mis poderes, jajaja. Será para la próxima jejeje.
Friend @whatisnew, regards. You can't imagine the hours I spent in my garden, looking for bugs. Not even a spider. Yesterday I went out, and a yellow butterfly passed in front of me. I chased her and asked her to stop. I started to beg and she still never stopped, more than a few seconds, on a sheet. Sad. I lost my powers, hahaha. It will be for the next jejeje.
I can just see you now chasing that butterfly and talking to it! LOL! Hopefully you will see something, anything soon. : )
That's how it went. Hahaha. I also hope to find some bug soon hahahaha. Bye @whatisnew.
Felicidades a los ganadores, especialmente a @belkisa758. Espero sacar pronto mi participación. Gracias @whatisnew por esta iniciativa.
Thanks for your kind words @antoniarhuiz! I am looking forward to your entry. : )
Happy Thursday everyone !!! Congratulations to all the winners this week !!
Nice moth @whatisnew , I haven't seen a bug in weeks :(
If this keeps up I'll have to bust out my crayons and draw one. Plus I've been working a lot of overtime this month so I can get some new toys =p
The Sigma 150-600 telephoto will be here Saturday and I actually have days off next week to use it lol
!DERANGED
Thanks Bud! No bugs here either and I am glad that I stocked up on photos. I will been even happier when the weather gets warm. I am excited to see how your new toy Sigma works. Have fun and get some rest!
!DERANGED
I'm at work, they kind of frown on that rest thingy here lol
What kind of rig are you running btw ??
Don't you get sick again!
I have a Canon Power Shot ELPH 180. I would love to have a macro lens but since I can't work anymore I don't know if I will ever be able to get one. I am just grateful that I have a camera.
Ah, I don't usually get sick much and never twice in the same season.
The reason I ask about your rig is because I may have something you might be interested in...
Drop me a note over at chromiumbgo over at Gmail O.o
Thank you!

Hello, Here my post for this week
Hi @tahiaarq! Thanks for your entry. : )
That is one unusual big black moth we will just call it the "Black Widow"...lol 😊
Here is my entry for week #44 . Thanks.
Back At My Favorite Butterfly Park !!
No! Not the Black Widow because that is the name of a spider and you know that I am petrified of spiders. LOL! Thanks for your entry @hangin. : )
Haha...that's why i throw that in ...lol 🤣 🤣
Remind me to smack you when I see you. LOL!
Lol...let me know when your coming so i can run 🤣

Hi @antoniarhuiz! Thanks for your entry. : )
Howdy Butterfly! Can't we just call it an ugly moth and forget about it? lol..that's funny about the spider!
It is not an ugly moth!!! I am hoping to put this behind me, sooner rather than later. It has been driving me crazy. LOL! Thanks for your support Jonboy! : )
Howdy again Butterfly! I don't understand, what has been driving you crazy, people calling that plain moth ugly?
Howdy Jonboy? As far as moths go, this one is interesting. No, the thing that drove me crazy with this moth is not being able to identify it after countless hours and days of research. I hate not being able to find answers.
Oh, ok I see. How do you go about finding the name of a species of moth or bug or butterfly?
I do what you do. Lots of research on the internet starting with images first. Every little bit of info leads to more and more and more, until I finally have a name.
Isn't there an app where you just put in a photo and it identifies it? They say there's one for flowers like that.
