  I’m very used to hummingbirds (in Mexico), but I was amazed then I though I saw one in Barcelona. It flies exactly like hummingbirds but this have antenas, so I knew it was an insect. I took a series of pictures of it, but they were not as clear and beautiful like this.

  I saw my first hummingbird moth last week in Eastern Oregon. I was absolutely fascinated by it when I thought it was a hummingbird. Completely captured when I noticed it was an insect. I watch a lot of discovery channel. This one must have escaped me. That’s a wonderful photograph

  Just saw one in Millerton, NY. Strangest bug I’ve ever seen. These CAN’T be native to the Northeast

  I saw this amazing little creature in my back garden. East Sussex, England. I’ve never seen one of these moths before, to be honest I didn’t know they exsisted. I hope it returns as i now have a camera by my back door!
