Description Beautiful Hummingbird Moth feeding on the flowers at dusk.  This little guy was very friendly and not shy at all.  Loved his wing patterns.

Thank you!  Glad you like it.  It is amazing to look at and photograph.  And it had little fear of me, it would let me snap photos for 20-30 min at a time from a very close vantage.  Ot was busy working those flowers for treats.

Wow, that is really cool. I had a giant moth land on me once and it didn't seem to have any fear of me at all. Moths are funny little things!
