This moth likes to visit our Butterfly bush and I was about to leave for a ride with the gopro so I got some video of it.
Pretty neat little thing.

I love those guys. I used to see them all the time at my old house.
cool critter!
I saw a plump Mr Toad emerge out from under my ground-level deck the other day
I think he is getting plump on the billion mosquitos hatching down there
Cool,I've never seen one before.Learn something new everyday.
We have tons of hummingbirds,my wife puts out two feeders but they are starting their southern migration.
neato!
kinda shocking that it doesn't seem to be timid of the big tall guy filming him wearing a mohawk helmet [thumbsup]
We had a couple around this summer.
They even sound like a humming bird.

You can get surprisingly close before they slowly move on to another flower. Maybe one or two inches with your hand.
Amazing..all the critters/insects there are in the world! Never seen one before. Very cool!
Saw my first in France around seven years ago, they are now in the UK, must be global warming or something.
