Last of the Joe Pye

This little Hummingbird Moth is getting the last bit of good out of the Joe Pye.  It has mostly gone by but I thought it was a nice contrast to the moth.  These moths are so difficult to photograph because their wings move just as fast as their namesake.  Oddly, only one wing is in focus here.  These interesting insects always arrive when the phlox is in bloom but they do like a visit to the Joe Pye and especially to the Bee Balm.  Our rain last night seems to have cleared the air a bit.  No air quality advisory this morning, thankfully.
