The German name oh the #HummingbirdHawkMoth is "#Taubenschwänzchen" what means "Pigeons tail"
Here you ca see this tail in detail. This actually looks a bit like the tail of a pigeon. The "feathers" of the tail are scales and are used to navigate perfectly in confined spaces.

@slomo@toot.catSome pictures from today's excursion to Chalkidiki with @vivia. The weather was not good at all, it was windy and rainy, but we still saw some nice things.
The pictures are featuring a hummingbird hawk moth in-flight and drinking the nectar of a rosemary plant, a colorful male and female peacock and the stormy sea.
