Hummingbird Moth(s)....flittering from bloom to bloom. Hummingbird Moths - Sphinx or Hawk Moths White-lined Sphinx Hummingbird Moth image © 2007 BIRDS-N-GARDEN.COM (click here) Hummingbirds do not have striped backs. They do not usually appear to be brown. They will not let you approach them to get a closer look. If you believe you saw a brown, striped hummingbird, you probably saw the perfect hummingbird look-a-like. Hummingbird moths have disappointed many people who believed that they were seeing their first hummingbird. Although you may have to wait longer to see a hummingbird, hummingbird moths are very interesting in their own right. Unlike most moths, they will fly during daylight. You can see many of them at any time of day but evening is the most productive time to watch for hummingbird moths.
...very quick little bugs, making it hard to get a clear picture but not so quick that Thomas the Tom wasn't able to nab one!!
