Hawk moths come out in huge numbers after Channel Country floods. In this image the moth is feeding on the Capparis mitchellii or ‘wild orange’.
The wild orange is an Australian native plant found in dry inland areas of Australia. It is not related to oranges, nor to the Osage-orange which is known as “wild orange” in North America, but to capers.
