What is it?

Yesterday as I was walking to my car my friend and co-worker, Dante, was checking something out in the “bushes.”  We’re really not sure what it was… we even called out another friend and co-worker, Mark II, (or is he Mark I, I think he’s Mark I, but I digress).

It sort of looked like a large furry bee, but then it didn’t and it kind of flew like a hummingbird, but it was definitely not a bird.  Here’s the video I took with my camera… you tell me…

What is this thing!??!?!

Great footage!!! My guess is a Snowberry Clearwing Moth which is a type of hummingbird moth.

Forget the hummingbird moth...It was just great to hear all of your voices again. You should definitely post more vids. I miss you guys!
