Hummingbird Hawk

Not sure if anyone else has these yet but we have had one feeding in our Garden and Lower Burnt moor for the last two days. Its mainly feeding on Catmint (Nepeta sp) and Red Valarian. I was amazed to see it feeding on Red Valarian in strongs winds 15/20mph this morning and having no trouble in holding position whilst hovering
