Clear Winged Hummingbird Moth
I was out taking pictures yesterday when I spotted the interesting creature, seen in picture number four. It was, as you can see an odd looking bug, almost a mix between a bee and dragonfly. I was intrigued so I snapped a few shots, not an easy task because it kept moving, so I could show my family and see if they knew what it was. They didn't. I then uploaded the photo to Facebook and asked if anyone knew what it was. After a few funny and punny comments I got an answer. It is a Hummingbird Moth and more specifically a Clear Winged Hummingbird Moth. Mystery solved. And I have a renewed sense of just how creative the Creator is.
