Hummingbird imposter

At first, I thought I was seeing a small hummingbird. Obviously it is not and and is some sort of fat moth.

Good shooting ...

They'll trick the eye, that's for sure! They move just like hummingbirds.

Good angles captured here.

I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed when I realized it was a moth, I thought I was seeing a new-to-me bird. But it is kinda cool.

Thanks. It hung around for a while and gave me several opportunities.
