I am just tickled pink, yes pun intended, about my Honeysuckle perennial this year! The blossoms are just popping up everywhere. The hummingbird moths are circling around, and boy are they cool, with horizontal and vertical striped bodies. You can see one in the picture above towards the top. I couldn't get a close-up picture that wasn't blurry, so I grabbed one off the web.
Aren't they cool? It is called a White-lined spinx moth (Hyles lineata). I thought for sure it had to be a hummingbird with its super fast wing speed and because they often make appearances around the plant as well, but then my daughter, all of very bright 13 years of age, pointed out..."no mom, birds do not have antennas". Hmmm...little smarty pants...and of course, she's right.

What I wouldn't give for an office like this?! The Donghia fabric on the back of the chairs is one of my favorites. I used it in a foyer below. Artistic Designs for Living, Tineke Triggs
