I am trying to identify an insect that reminds you of a
humming bird in that it can hover and backup exactly
like a humming bird. Someone said that it is a humming
bee, but I rather think that it is a moth.
Can anyone suggest where I can get more information?
Thanks in advance. I'd love to get a picture or graphic
image of this marvelous insect!
It is a Hummingbird Hawk Moth
Yours Gratefully Gordon
