Hummikngbird Hawk Moth
Just been to the gallery to pick up a painting, and as I walked past the
little garden in full bloom, I spotted this little guy - a Hummingbird
Hawk Moth, a frequent day-flying Summer visitor to Britain, and a
suspected resident now. I didn't have my camera with me, but luckily had
my phone in my pocket, so managed to nget these three pics of him,
hovering over W
allflowers, and sipping the nectar, never settling
on a flower, just using his long proboscis, just like a Hummingbird
does, hence the name. Keep your eye out for this beautiful little insect
in your garden!
