          The picture is unfortunately only a zoomed in still of a short video I filmed with my phone at my parent's house. At first I got really excited because I was under the impression there is a humming bird in my parent's garden, which is highly unlikely.

          I did some research and found out that it is a hummingbird hawk-moth - such an incredible creature! It was floating while drinking from a blossom.

          The second picture is taken from wikipedia.

                    @RobeOfTheMagi wow what a beautiful photo of the hawk moth. My mom planted a butterfly bush in the front yard when I was a kid. I would often see them on it. So cool!

                    edit: My mother in law brought a clipping from her butterfly bush to my house last spring and it is growing strong. I bought a second one at a plant sale the other weekend, so hopefully in a couple of years, I will see some hawk moths again.

                          This Huntsman spider was living in the gap around the hinges in my car's door.

                          And this is a Golden Orb Spider, which I saw last weekend. She was quite big.

                              @cityofdelusion the irony is that those big and scary spiders aren't dangerous. In fact, a Huntsman will eat the more problematic ones.

                                        It's one of the few insects I know pretty well because they're so well known for fly fishing. It's also the only insect where i know the scientific name and what it means.
