Moon-gazing walks through our garden can bring us face to face with flitting, furry, fat bellied hawkmoths. Traditionally seen as omens of death, the death's-head hawkmoth is an important pollinator of night blooming plants. And hawkmoths are masters of the air! Flying fast, they can dart, hover, fly backwards, and perform inspirational aerobatics.

Air pollution changes the smell of flowers, making it harder for moths and other pollinators to find them, which can impact the natural ecosystems we depend on.
