(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Unsual Visitor

A few nights we had quite the unusual visitor to our Star Gazer Lilly.  At first I thought it was a hummingbird but upon closer inspection I saw it was an insect but I had no idea what it was.  Does anyone know what this little guy is?

Yahoo! A friend just told me it's a Hummingbird Moth VERY COOL!!

For more wordless Wednesday fun head on over to 5 minutes for Moms

No idea...but your lilies are beautiful! I planted some lilies this spring, and I think it's budding...not sure because my thumb's not very green!

Thanks for visiting my blog. Yes, Winston is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and he is 13 weeks old now. Your tri-color girl is beautiful!! Love the photo of the lilies too.

Happy WW!
