Clearwing hummingbird moth {Explored}

Just back from a holiday in the Loire (France). Although I have seen many Hummingbird Hawkmoths, I have never before seen a version of it with clear wings!! What an amazing sight when I first saw it!! They don't live long - and I don't know how common they are in France (most of the internet pages I went to to learn about it talked about it being mainly located in America!) - and they only have a really short life-span (about a week I believe) - so I think I was really lucky to see and capture one of them!!
