My garden Buddleia is in full bloom at the moment and is attracting its share of pollinators. This evening it played host to one of my favourite insects, a Hummingbird Hawk-moth. These remarkable little characters are migrants from southern Europe and arrive in the UK in varying numbers each year. This year seems to have been a good one for them so it wasn't a surprise that one popped in for a brief pitstop but it was a pleasure. Hopefully it or another will make further visits over the next week or two, I'll be watching intently for them.
