What an amazing example of convergent evolution. I could easily mistake this month for a humming bird, they feed in almost the exact same way. So interesting.
I love going out and getting macro footage of insects and arachnids, I really need to start using aquariums to get certain behaviors on cameras. Hawkmoth larvae are really interesting because as a group they are really specialized to a few host plants.
The concept of your channel is so well done! The curiosity of finding something in your yard with the commitment to watch an insect all the way through metamorphosis, with amazing, detailed footage. Keep up the good work!
@@queenslandbackyardbugsandb2761 I am making a list of alternative pollinators. Will they be happy in a greenhouse during winter or is their life cycle fixed by time not temperature?
