#sphinxmoth — Public Fediverse posts

I think this sphinx moth had just pupated since it wasn’t in any mood to fly off. I disturbed it while weeding a clump of native California fuchsias (I’ve been busy gardening before upcoming travel) #SphinxMoth #NativeGarden

Rain shafts like this sunset pink-tinged one I painted in my Perpetual Journal are to me a quintessential feature of our Southwest U.S. landscape! BTW, I saw NO Sphinx Moth larvae this summer in our Tucson, AZ yard. 🤔

This reddish brown #ClearwingHummingbirdMoth, #Hemaris, entertained me for quite some time as it flitted from one purple/pink bloom to another of the Butterfly Bush, Buddleia. It comes by its name honestly as it hovers, hums and nectars just like the Hummingbird and it loves the same flowers.
