Hummingbird Moth

Photobucket

So you think you saw a baby hummingbird, but you just couldn't explain those antennae.
Did you even think maybe nature gives baby hummingbirds feathers that mimic antennae to disguise the vulnerable baby?
Maybe they fall off when they get to a certain age... NOT!!

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever . . . it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.
