Enjoying all the matches so far. Has to be one of the best Football World Cups since the 1966-70 events for me.

Closing images of ITV's coverage of the Germany v. Portugal showed someone holding what looked like Hawk Moth by the wing and moving it to safety away from the action ~ nice touch that man. Brief glimpse showed what looked like Privet or Convolulous Hawk.

Often whilst watching TV coverage of events in faraway places, I spot a bird or butterfly unlike stuff we're used to seeing and often wonder what they are ... :)
