  1. This week, saw a Humming Bird Moth in  our backyard! Have only ever seen these in Spain and the South of France before this year. Global warming has many surprises.  Unfortunately it flew off before I could get a photo but Mrs. H also saw it  so I'm not imagining things.

      A friend of ours lives on the Shetland Isles and she has spotted one in her garden.

      These aren't particularly uncommon in UK - I saw one in my brother's garden in Liverpool about 20 years ago. 

      Although they can occasionally overwinter in northern Europe, they don't breed this far north, so basically any that you see will have been bred further south and migrated from there.

      Just discovered this thread.

      Humming Bird Moths are annual visitors to our flower garden in mid Denmark. 55N.
