Moth experts are very excited about the find...
It's a brilliant find. Who have you contacted?
Lovely looking moth, but wouldn't like to be trapped in the same room as it.
An Environment Agency chap apparently came an took it away...
He called back later in the day to say it was delicious!
Visiting my folks in Woodingdean one last day last summer I saw a hummingbird moth in their garden in daylight, it was about 2 inches long and really did look like a hummingbird.
Managed to get a video of it too. Can I upload a video direct from an iPhone on here or do you have to upload to YouTube and link it?
The reason I was chased by a hummingbird moth was because the Ecuadorean farmer that lived with us in the Cloudforest decided to cook chips and set fire to the plastic window netting
I don't think you can upload direct, best bet is something like Youtube.

Impressive things.
You're turning into Meades Ball.
100 UK sightings in 80 years apparently... and this one chose Newhaven!
