Random, but I've never, ever seen anything like it. I don't usually stop to look at things like this, but I felt the urge to film it because it was so unusual looking. apologies for the terrible video, but It was quite far away before I managed t get my phone out.

It was quite fast, faster than I'd expect a moth to be. It was in a bush frequented by normal bees and and the occasional wasp on my morning route in copenhagen.

Edit:

thanks everyone, consensus seems to be this:

happy to have seen it, very strange creature.

  1. That’s a humming-bird hawk-moth (Macroglossum stellatarum).

  10. Det lille kræ overvintrer ved Middelhavet.
    Utroligt så lille et insekt kan flyve så langt, i vind og vejr og fjender, tilbagelægge tusinde af kilometer.
    Den tror den er en fugl.
