Thanks for sharing this article, Ellen.
Just realise that this moth does have the similiar hook-liked antenae like our beloved skipper.

Congratulations, Martin. You have shot a completely different species there, Cephonodes hylas hylas. There is a second member of this genus found on Sumatra (and on the Peninsular), C. picus, but P. hylas can be distinguished by the white underside of the thorax.
This Hummingbird Hawkmoth stopped in front of me, and it looked nothing like a Humming bird in this state.
OH... looks better in flight that's for sure!
Thanks for sharing this stationed Hummingbird Hawkmoth. Like what Ellen said, it looks much better when it is in flight. this will not interest me to shoot it. ;-p
