Which clearwing? - Hemaris diffinis

Which clearwing? - Hemaris diffinis
Rochester, Monroe County, New York, USA
July 6, 2010
To my untrained eye, it's not a typical Snowberry or Hummingbird.

7853 - Hemaris thysbe
Lacks the black frontal markings of Hemaris diffinis. (no rsvp, thanks)

Hmm
I can't tell if the legs are red or black. It looks like Hemaris diffinis, but if the legs are red it would be the less common H. gracilis.
