hawkmoths are common in my garden, and a sure sign that summer is really
on the way. Their wonderful colouring really gets people talking about
them, and they are attractive to children. |

Seen rarely in repose, this Broad-bordered Bee hawkmoth, which is a day
flyer, is mostly seen in a hovering flight, nectaring at Bugle plants.
This one was at Vert Woods in East Sussex. |

was alive with hummingbird hawkmoths in early September 2006, and these
pictures were taken at Polruan. Unusually, in the lower picture, I found
one at rest. |
