Hummingbird Hawk was a county tick and only the second Peacock I've seen since we've been here.

Marwick Head
Brilliant afternoon at Marwick Head with loads of insects up near the
monument on Spear Thistle, thanks to AL for the heads up. Moths -
Hummingbird Hawk, 2; Silver Y, 20;
Agriphila straminiella, lots; Twin-spot Carpet, 2; White Ermine (cat) 1.
Butterflies - Peacock, 1; Red Admiral, 2; Painted Lady, 12; Common
Blue, 1. Bees - Great Yellow Bumblebee, huge number! Common Carder, and
various black, white and yellow beasts which I might try to identify
later (Bombus lucorum agg photo below).

It is incredible how fast a hummingbird can move its wing! Amazing that you were able to capture these photos, especially the ones of the bees. Thanks for the share, hope you had a fantastic weekend. Keep up the posts.

Lovely photos, as usual! I love close-up photos of bees, they just look so cuddly LOL
