"This unexpected species record was made today during Discovery Bay! The Hummingbird Hawkmoth was spotted and filmed by Ian Whitmore in Browns Family Golf and Cafe just next door. It appeared to be attempting to feed on nectar from the daffodils in the table vases and most likely overwintered as a caterpillar in a cosy corner somewhere in the cafe".
