Eyed Hawk Moth - a photo on Flickriver

Eyed Hawk Moth

            The first time I have managed a picture of one of these although I believe it is fairly common.
When provoked it flashes the hind wings, which are decorated with intense blue and black 'eyes' on a pinkish background.
Seen in my garden on a hanging basket.
