Description A strange animal, almost as long as my little finger... we found it zooming around in a flowerbed near the chain bridge in Budapest. At first we were almost sure it must be a hummingbird, but these surely should be larger and not have antennae??

We looked it up after we'd got home and had a look at the magnified image. We found out it's actually a big moth. Live and learn!
