I am told this is a hummingbird moth. It perfectly mimics the look and behavior of the hummingbird. I never knew these existed before discovering them a couple nights ago.

Never saw one before. Seems to have a lot of equipment to help it fly. Beautiful shot and a fine background. V

Great flight shot Nora. I've never seen one of these, though I know of them and they do reside around here as well.
