Brenda .. some wonderful captures here of an awesome little critter ... I had never seen one before, so thank you for your patience and time in sharing with webshots .. this hummingbird moth is now one of my screensavers ...

said mabelscritterart 2007.06.22 at 23:06:07 PDT

I love your album and am amazed you got so many good shots. I've tried and they move so FAST! BTW, did you know the big green caterpillars you find in tomato plants turn into clear wing hummingbird moths? If they survive being sprayed, that is.

said cabrosh 2007.06.23 at 11:57:54 PDT

Hello Brenda,this is an awesome album! I have never heard of or seen these before so I found this album interesting! Hope you have a great week & take care!......Diane. Thank you for your visit and comments on my bees,spiders etc. album!

Just this evening I saw one of these on my flowers and took some pictures of it but haven't looked at them yet. I'm sure they won't be as soon as these.

said whaskin 2007.07.07 at 17:53:04 PDT

This is the MOST fascinating album. Such intriguing little creatures. I am a hummingbird fan and take as many photos as I can of them. They come back every year after spending their winter in SA. I wonder if your hummingbird moth has a short life span like any other moth or if it has the lifespan like a hummingbird. Congratulations on a gorgeous album! - DeeAnne :)
