The Impatient Hawk Moth (Theretra Oldenlandiae)

Here I want to share the macro image I captured this afternoon. Theretra oldenlandiae (Fabricius, 1775), commonly called the impatiens hawkmoth. it was probably due to its protruding eyes that closely resembled the eyes of the hawk.

This moth had many fine hairs, with a white line running between its eyes, it looked as if it had eyebrows. At first, I thought this moth was an aggressive insect, but when I approached it, it ignored my presence. Of course, it was luck, because I was able to take as many pictures as I could.
