The light was not in my favor with these shots, and the moth was mostly deep into the milkweed blossom. Is there enough here to ID? Thanks in advance for any help.

Male - Virginia Ctenucha
The tiny white fringe on the wings and the blue thorax, combined with the consistent coloring of the hind wings, means this one is most likely it. (Northeastern range)
Ctenucha virginica
: ♂

Good Luck!
