A Hummingbird Hawk Moth on a thistle. One of the upsides of prolonged heatwave conditions (not the usual 2 days) combined with a southerly air flow, is we get an influx of visitors from the continent. I’ve been chasing these wee beauties for years, conditions were perfect this week as there was a significant “fall” of these wonderful moths on Scotland’s Southernmost tip, The Mull of Galloway. They are mesmerising to watch and a challenge to photograph. On this occasion everything came together.
