Hummingbird Moth - Panjin, Liaoning, China (1 Viewer)

An interesting 'Hummingbird' moth taken this morning in Panjin, Liaoning, China. A half dozen of so feeding in one flower bed. I found it interesting how the color of the rear wings closely matched the flowers that they were feeding on. The underwing also matches well with the flowers. I only see these around this time of year.
