5 inches wingspan and 8" long ? OO not only is it gorgeous, it's HUGE!! XD No offense meant to fairies, but they stand no chance. he's too beautiful.
Maybe he was a lil' cold ? since your place was slightly too far north and their arrival is recent. Would explain him being so docile. That or he "felt the love" :aww:

I got visited by a very fluffy "Hemaris fuciformis" afew days ago [link] Incredible translucent wings :aww:

One of the biggest moths on this continent ^^ And one of the rarest to see, since they only live for a week. Might have been a little cold; it was overcast and rainy that day. Either way, he was a very obliging model and didn't seem to mind being touched.
