J’ai eu la chance de croiser et de photographier ce magnifique moro-sphinx, appelé aussi sphinx colibri. Avec sa vitesse incroyable, son vol stationnaire devant les fleurs et cette précision étonnante dans chacun de ses mouvements, je ne savais plus vraiment si j’avais devant moi un papillon ou un minuscule oiseau. Il est là quelques secondes à peine, virevoltant avec une grâce et une rapidité incroyables, puis disparaît presque aussi vite qu’il est arrivé. Un instant fugace, mais tellement beau… Quel bonheur d’avoir pu immortaliser ce petit moment de magie. La nature nous offre parfois subtilement  de petits miracles....Belle soirée à tous 🥰

I was lucky enough to come across and photograph this magnificent hummingbird hawk-moth, also known as the hummingbird moth. With its incredible speed, its ability to hover in front of flowers, and the astonishing precision of every single movement, I could no longer really tell whether I was looking at a butterfly or a tiny bird. It stays there for only a few seconds, fluttering with incredible grace and speed, then disappears almost as quickly as it arrived. A fleeting moment, but such a beautiful one… What a joy to have been able to capture this little moment of magic. Nature sometimes quietly offers us these little miracles… Wishing you all a beautiful evening 🥰
