Is this a bee I saw in Spain?

Question

I was out walking in Asturias and saw what first appeared to be butterflies as they had black wings with red spots. However on close inspection they seemed to be bees, and when they flew the wings were beating very fast. I will try and put some photos here if I can.

Here are the pictures:-

Answer 1

Never seen it before, and Google isn't being helpful, so this is probably completely wrong: I'm guessing it's some type of Hummingbird Moth.
