Does anyone know what this insect is? It appears to be some form of lepidoptera (not sure why I remember that word…), though it looks and behaves much like a hummingbird.
These shots were taken last weekend when I went with my family to a bonsai festival (photos of that to be posted at a later date). We were waiting for the bus and these little critters were flying all around the nearby bushes. The photos are all cropped since I didn't have a better zoom lens at the time.. 🙁
I've seen them before so I know they're not uncommon, but I have no idea what they are – any one know? 🙂
