Hummingbird Moth



Ok. In this photo is a sphynx or hummingbird moth...can you see it? They come out each night at dusk and drink the nectar from the flowers in our yard...

I've never heard of such a creature. That is so cool.
mmmm yes... once i tried to pull my flowerboxes in for winter to save the beautiful flowers... and wouldn't you know a bunch of these buggers came flying out in my apartment! they are not small! eeeeekkkk....

No, they are not small...and when outside they are really awesome - but even though they won't hurt I wouldn't want them fying around my apartment...

however my cats would have a field day catching them...
