Baby Hummingbird Clearwing Moth
On my way into the house this evening, I noticed an odd looking bug whizzing around the Butterfly Verbena. Upon closer inspection, I saw that it was a baby Hummingbird Clearwing Moth.
Between the breeze, the size of this thing (< ~2.5 CM or 1 inch), and it's speed, It was tough getting a clear shot. 3 out of the 60 pictures came out with this being the best of the bunch. Or maybe the one in today's extra photos showing a little wing action?
I'm hoping that I will see more of this little guy as it grows larger and hopefully will be easier to photograph!
