H is for Hummingbird moth. There are several species that fall under this name. They look like little baby Hummingbirds as they Hover near flowers and use their long proboscis (tongue) to get some nectar. Oddly, these moths are active during the daytime. Some species are called clearwings because they lack scales on parts of their wings. #hisfor #hummingbirdmoth #moths #insects #natureclub
