It may have overwintered locally and been disturbed, or perhaps the mild weather encouraged it to get flying early. 📸 The photo above shows the actual moth David spotted 🎥 This video is from Leighton Moss in September 2023

Spotted in Liverpool – a Hummingbird Hawk moth! Recorded by David Costello on 27th February outside the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool. Hummingbird Hawk moths are typically seen between May & Oct, so encountering one in late winter this far north is unusual.
