Hummingbird hawk-moth, early this spring

This 18 March 2019 video is about a hummingbird hawk-moth in a garden in Gouda town, the Netherlands. It is early for that species this spring.

Even in February, a few hummingbird hawk-moths were already present in the Netherlands. Usually, they winter in southern Europe and come to the Netherlands later. But lately, some of them winter in the Netherlands.
