River of Flowers

Friday: Hummingbird Moth ...

... I think!
Was sitting staring at the flowers in the garden when I spotted this very unusual visitor. I've seen them many years ago when I grew Hedysarum coronarium, but this one was quite happy feeding on the red campion. Apologies for quality of photos but they were taken with the iPad and this little guy wasn't wasting any time posing ...

A very nice lunch with Margaret earlier, we had cheesy garlic bread and a delicious lemon cake to follow, thank you Margaret :-)) x
