Hawkmoths? I don't know those. I do see a lot of sphinx or humming bird moths around the desert bird of paradise though. Your right, that would make for some cool video using a high shutter speed. Thanks

mine are dark purple and white and only the ones planted in full blazing sun all day will close during the day; the ones in partial or broken sunlight stay open 24/7

Any chance you could film some of the hawkmoths that visit the flowers to feed? That would be great to see!

thumbs down for lack of knowledge. I got feverish symptoms that made me go to the hospital.

too bad that nobody there even knew what datura is.
