Being at the right place at the right time, this little guy caught me unaware while I was photographing my flowers. At first, I thought it was a hummingbird. Fortunately, he didn't get scared off and I managed to get several shots of him. Unfortunately, on this shot I didn't have the shutter speed set high enough to get a freeze action on his wings, but part of the body was in focus enough to scalvage the photo. In this photo, the White-Lined Sphinx Moth a/k/a hummingbird moth has extended it's proboscis (feeding tube) in the center of the flower to capture the nectar. The proboscis can be as much as 10 inches in some species. When not feeding, the proboscis is neatly coiled up.
