Nerd Fact! The Hummingbird moth (Macroglossum stellatarum), also called "Dove's Tail" in Bulgaria, is a butterfly from the Sphingidae family. Its strong flying abilities and flying pattern, along with its long proboscis (its trunk!), make it look like a hummingbird. Its wingspan of around 5 cm (2 inches) and hairy, brown to orange body color, make every self respecting lady jump in the arms of the closest gentleman.
