Hummingbird Moth Bumble Bee disguise Clear Wing Sphinx H

[bluliite]

I used to see these and the smaller ones alll of the time. I thought, "Thems the funniest looking hornets I ever saw. They must have the worst sting ever." :p

[wileyk209zback]

I can always tell right off the bat they aren't really bees; though sometimes I get them mixed up for some other hummingbird moth

[ShadowofLocke]

comment pending approval!? I'm not going to hurt your friend, here. Just observing!

[SuperCatfire]

the music made me have to get a new pair of pants.

[scienceeker]

It's definitely a bird.

I have one in my patio garden right now. I don't remember ever seeing one before so I searched Google for "moth looks like bumble bee" and found this video. Thanks for the pictures it looks just like that.

I saw one yesterday on our tidal wave petunias. I thought I was hallucinating because I've never seen one before & didn't know what it was. It looked just like this one. I told my coworkers that there was a huge bee outside with a fluffy butt that looked like a bird's tale & they giggled. Then one of my coworkers saw it, too. Good to know I'm not crazy =)

Just saw one yesterday in my suburban Maryland back yard. It was gathering nectar from a large "butterfly bush" (cone of white flowers) that attracts everything but hummingbirds (they like red). Thanks for video and comments.

Can anyone tell me this flower that the moth is on.

@spiceygin1 milkweed

[kykyru]

@spiceygin1 why?



[iluvmychucks]

@spiceygin1

the kind i have on my porch!

apparently

i saw one this morning!

[HahaJubJub92]

i see these at random lol, i thought they were funny shaped bumble bees xD, now i know its just a moth mimicing one :D

[Automeris]

Very nice. Hemaris moths are diurnal and must mimic something to discourage birds.

[BlackRavenStudios]

I have one of those at my house that hangs out at my butterfly bush.

[kyleain]

eat it

[BlackRavenStudios]

LOL

[KoEDeath]

these things fly all over my house every summer o.o some look like mini flying lobsters too lol

[betweenXtheXstars]

Yeah so I just caught one and I wanna know how to raise it... Any tips?

[IrenaScott]

When they are at that stage I think they are full grown. Probably the best thing to do would be to turn it loose or give it a good place to fly and lots of flowers.

[LIILkrazzychiikj]

@betweenXtheXstars Why hell you want to raise one of those .?

[Travellinghobo2]

I saw one of these in Greece, I'm not keen on insects of any kind, this one in particular.

I nearly shat

[iluvtheboiatchurch11]

WHOA I SAW THOSE IN MY YARD ONE TIME....i thought they were a bee awesome!!!

[JcmdiStockFootage]

That's great footage - nice work! :D

[k9feces]

Whats the name of the beetle with the yellow and black stripe in the beginning ?

[YeRdUa321]

WoW!!I saw one of these on the butterfly bush at my house the other day, i have pictures of it, but this video is amazing!!

[MyspaceNumber1user16]

i was just searching to see one and to see if it was called a humming bee casue my little bro (14) was just stung by one and i wanted to search it

[GOPHater]

I got one hanging around my flower garden in Medina, Ohio.. very cool indeed.

[djstamper1]

Yep, and their tongue is way long. The one I videoed you could see it come out and go into the butterfly bush flowers.
