I've never seen anything like this particular moth in my life! WOW!!! Amazing sight.
I don't think we have them here in western Washington. Marvelous photo.

Beautiful picture of the Hummingbird Moth!
One day several years ago a friend was telling me about this moth...I'd never seen one. Wouldn't you know...that very day one visited my garden!!! :)
I saw it several times that summer and have only seen one since then! I wonder whether they are dwindling in number(?). I don't have any idea what their progressive stages look like, nor what they eat in the caterpillar/larval stages, do you?
I'd like to see them again.

They are often called hummingbird moths for just that reason. This one was very large and spent some time in the hostas. This is one of my favorite photographs. Thanks for taking the time to comment on my pics!

Wonderful picture. I have one little fella (I guess) who loves my plant selection. I really enjoy seeing him fluttering around. Initially I thought it was a hummingbird
