Diane Mumm Garden Videos You can find those all over the desert:Last weekend (April 11-12) in Vegas, on my way to the movies, just about 50-75 feet east of the Vegas strip, starting between Denny's and Cocoa Cola Museum, was a bush with a smaller one of those moths..blends well with those bushes.
Diane: The only thing more difficult than capturing them on video is herding cats. It is rare to find them out during the day since they mostly come out just before dark. This is the type of moth that lays the eggs that turn into the tomato and tobacco hornworms. Nice very clear video of a hard subject to keep in the viewfinder. You do have a talent for taking photos and videos of creatures and flowers. I enjoyed this video. Thanks!
yes some don't want them around as they do damage at the larva stage but funny thing is I don't have that problem here.. (knock on wood) they are a beautiful creature nonetheless.. :) thanks for stopping and thank you for the nice comment..:)
Hi Diane, that was a nice and tranqual video of the hummingbird on your supertunias. The music was very relaxing, too. You show the beauty of God's creations. Great job!!!! :=)))
Hi Diane, I just finished resding the blog you wrote I n the fall, I found it very innovating. You covered lots of information, and I can't wait for the spring, because I'll be gardening outdoors for sure!! ♡♡♡ ;)
Happy new year Diane thanks for the beautiful video a reminder that Spring will come. But here in the Northeast it's hard to believe with all the snow we have received this year.
it is a moth but yes really looks like a bird.. the larva stage is a tomato hornworm which most don't want in their gardens.. but still they are quite beautiful! Happy New Year to You also, stop by anytime..
+Diane Mumm Garden Videos Thanks for this stunning video footage. If I could, I'd plan to have protective nets around the tomato plants to be kept for the kitchen, but always grow just a few others in the open, just for them to enjoy.
Such a beautiful moth. Most people don't like them very much due to their caterpillars habit of eating garden plants, but they shouldn't be a problem if you have a healthy garden. People try killing them off with pesticides and wind up killing their predators instead, so they reach plague proportions. Anyways, brilliant footage.
This is a old video but they are totally harmless. They have no intentions of hurting humans. They do not have a stinger and they have a proboscis just like butterflies, not mandibles like wasps or anything to bite with. They can't do anything bad to you.
r.i.p harry, you shall always be remembered
