Epilogue: Preflight


Okay, our hummingbird moth really should get some kind of an award for staying power. He or she was still clinging to the storm door until we disturbed him (or her) by closing the sliding window over its safe haven on the screen.


But before this hybrid got tired of hanging around the house and left, we were able to get a pretty good perspective of size and wing action.



It’s too bad we didn’t capture a Sphingidae family hover demonstration, but he/she just seemed to be warming up and didn’t plan to stick around any longer than she/he had to.
