It’s interesting to compare the feeding styles of the moth and the hummingbird. Both are able to hover and change directions quickly, but the hummingbird is more stable, maybe because it’s slightly larger and I would assume the muscle structure of a bird vs a moth. But the hummingbird needs to aim its beak so the tongue can reach the nectar while the moth has its flexible proboscis to access it. Both of these photos were taken on the same morning.

@Jgbird @PhoenixSerenity how cool, to be able to compare them, in real life.
