Hummingbird Moth

Every year we have this really neat bug that visits my thrift when its in full bloom. I have never been able to get a really close look at it before because it flits around like a hummingbird. Today I finally saw him in the thrift again while I was outside having a picnic with Makyala and it just so happened that I had my camera handy!

So this is what he looks like...

After a little research online (dont you just love the www) I found out he is a hummingbird Moth! I am so glad to finally figure out what he is and can now enjoy his beauty.

Yes people I am amused by the small things in life!
