Check out this stunning hummingbird hawkmoth! ❤️(Macroglossum stellatarum) feeding on ice flower! I was lucky enough to get up close to this guy near Great western beach in Newquay! It truly is one of the most stunning insects in Britain, and the regions only true ‘hummingbird’ 😁 The caterpillars feed upon various types of bedstraw. #lepidoptera #hummingbirdhawkmoth #sphingidae #hawkmoth #moths #wildlife #insects #insect #hummingbird #savebutterflies #insectsofinstagram #insectlovers #beautiful #bugs #insect_perfection #wildlifephotography #animalovers #zoology #caterpillars #caterpillar #flowers #sphinxmoth #nature_good #metamorphosis
