HB Hawk Moth
Following up to "Pongo Potts" :
While patiently attempting to get a picture of a very large bumble bee
collecting pollen from our cherry tree, the first hummingbird hawk moth of
this year arrived at the same time.
Body length about 25mm with equal wing span.
The flowers being small it did not settle long enough on each for me to get
a picture so I just concentrated on watching its wonderful flying ability.
I've never seen one settle on a flower.
