It's a hummingbird moth!
very cool. Great photos!
We have 2 feeders, so, we get lots of hummers, but, I have never seen one of these before either. I hovered right by my head while I was taking these. DH said it was sucking my brains out.Katie E said:Wow, what a cool picture. Amazing proboscis on that moth, too.
It was about 5 or 6 inches. That is what had dh running in here to get me, asking me what it was.
We have plenty of hummingbirds here, but I've never seen the moths. I'll be looking now.
