I was pulling weed in a corner of my backyard and I almost stepped on this beautiful creature. It's a hummingbird hawk-moth (Macroglossum stellatarum). Enjoy a moment of magic...
(ALT text here as I can't add to a video. It's a hummingbird hawk-moth on my hand, fluttering its wings, and when I brought it to blooming dark pink snapdragon flowers, it showed a split second interest, and flew off)
