In Texas too
by: Leslie Todd

These bees or whatever are very busy on my sage right now. I'm in north Texas. They move so fast and continuously that they are very difficult to photograph.

Humming Bees
by: Anonymous

I also have many of these liitle bees and a neighbor told me they were called Humming Bird Bees. They go to the flowers I have plant for butterflies.
I'm in South Florida.

Hummingbird Moth

Just saw one (in amazement) at a party in Wisconsin August 20th... I thought someone had drugged by beer.

We Called Then Fairy Bees
by: Glenn Repass

I have seen these many times where I live. We always called them Fairy Bees. They are realy called clear winged moths.

I use to catch when I was a kid so I've studied them very closely. I have always loved them.

[Thanks Glen,

I'm not sure fairies are that scary looking.

The Hummingbird Clearwing Moth
by: Nancy Again

Thanks so much. The YouTube video gave me chills - that is exactly the creature that I see.

On looking up varieties, I see many vibrant-colored ones, but the one I see is the color of the one videoed on YouTube. What a perfect song accompaniment.

Is this FrAnthony's video? I didn't see any credits. Whomever did it - Thank you so very much - you made my day, especially since it is rainy windy (again) here in New England. "April (March?) showers bring May flowers". The Forsythia sooner - Halleluiah!

PS. I am a poet, and the Hummingbird Clearwing (nee Bee) is a part of a summer poem I am writing called "Jubilee". Now it is clarified. A fantastic website here. Spring Blessings.

[Thanks Nancy

The video was by SkiDiveGuy. I hope you'll send us the poem when it's finished, to include here.
