Who Has These As Pets......... http://www.birds-n-garden.com/white-...ird_moths.html http://creationview.com/Humming%20Bird%20Moth.html Okay we dont have them outside but they live in our flower bush and around our house. I found them first and thought they were humming birds from a distance because they are so big for a moth but little like a humming bird and their wings move super super fast. So i ran and got my mom because we love nature and humming birds. so we went by the flower bush and realized they were letting us get too close to them for them to be humming birds and seen they were big moths. They are soo beautiful!!! and if you hold a flower it will drink out of it in your hand. They eat like humming birds by hovering in front of the flower drinking the nectar. They arent around as much this year as last year but they fly in our garage all the time and sit in there with us lol and sometimes land on you. but we try to keep them out of there because our cat likes to try to catch them. anyways i wanted to show yall and we call them our pets lol! I have some pretty pictures of the actual ones flying around our house but i have to find them. but this gives you a look at them on this website! |
i dont know if most of them are in TX or what. Just wondering if anyone else has seen them? |
Wow, those moths are beautiful indeed! We only get the gray, common moths where I live. |

I'm so jealous!! I've never seen anything like that!! |
Amazing and beautiful markings. |
We have these in Louisiana and we call them hummingbird moths, they are beautiful and so cool because you can get so close to them. |
I live in the Mojave Desert and saw them for the first time this spring. They are amazing. I thought they were hummingbirds too (we have a LOT of hummingbirds) I couldn't believe when I found out they were a moth. Sonya |
We get them here and when I first saw one, I also thought it was a hummingbird! They are quite amazing. I didn't see any this summer, but I wasn't outside working on flowers as I normally do, so I probably just missed them. I don't like moths, but these are so amazing! |
wow weird never seen one like that before!! |
That is really neat. I'd love to feed them. |
Those are very beautiful!!! thanks for sharing |
Those are really cool. I've never seen/heard of them before. All we get around here are those ginormous tobacco moths. |
Yeah when we have friends or people in the garage with us and they see something huge flying around their heads lol they say what the hell is that! We just tell them ohh dont worry those are our pets. hahaha. One hit me in the head last night lol. but like i said when i had the other bedroom in my house right outside my window was the flower bush that they love and i seen them all the time and that was last year. now all i see them is at night in the garage when the neon lights are on from all the signs and stuff. (bar in our garage) |
They are so beautiful and I don't think we get them here up north but did you read the description? They are bad for crops. :( |
