This morning before the sun was up I saw a hummer very upset acting in the salvia. It turns out he was trying to do battle with a Hummingbird Moth. The Hummingbird Moth in the semi-dark conditions looked like a small hummer with stripes. The hummer gave up and left the Hummingbird Moth to feast on the salvia. He was there 5 to 10 minutes. I finally said I need some pictures after the hummer left. Couldn't have gotten pictures while the hummer there to much action. The moth was to quick for the hummer.

Here come the best pictures that I was able to capture.
