so yesterday i was out for a second, and i caught a flash of something in the phlox plant...it was moving really really fast. for a second, i really thought it was a hummingbird, it was a couple inches long and seemed to have a "needle" that it was inserting into the plant to extract nectar.
i ran into the house to get the camera, but he was a little too quick for me. when i uploaded the shots, i see that he has antennae - hmmmm - anybody know what this IS?
a hummingbird impersonator moth? if so, just like watching fake Elvises in Vegas, i enjoyed the show anyway :)
